Police are on the hunt for one not-so smooth criminal who busted a move before stealing laptops from a Sunbury School.

It is believed a man driving a silver Holden Commodore drove into a carpark of a Sunbury school about 1.10am on April 23.

The man is seen on CCTV dancing, spinning and jumping while listening to music.

It is believed the man was Dancing In The Dark.

After tapping into his inner rhythm, the thief then scaled the school property for several minutes before breaking into a building and stealing three laptops and a projector worth over $5000.

The offender is described as Caucasian, in his 30s with a medium build and long, dark brown hair.

Police said he was wearing a red and black hooded jumper, black runners red headband and blue gloves.

Police have released images and CCTV of a man they believe can assist with their enquiries.

Anyone who recognises the man or has information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or crimestoppersvic.com.au
