Police spring into action to find stolen bike and arrest thief within an hour of it being taken Heart-warming tale in week in which survey found UK police give lowest priority to bike theft – but this was in Italy and the bike cost €7,500 cycling
that three quarters of people in the UK don't expect the police to do anything about reports of bike theft, here's a heart-warming story of how officers sprang into action after a cyclist had his pride and joy stolen, reuniting him with it and arresting the thing within an hour of it being taken.
The bike – described as a pro-specced mountain bike – was on the rear rack of his car, outside a bar on Piazza Puccini in Florence, and while he enjoyed his morning caffè, the thief forced the lock and made off with the bike. Less than an hour later, officers in a patrol car who were carrying out checks in the city’s Parco delle Cascine, a short distance from where the theft took place, saw a man flash by, riding what looked to them to be the bike that had been stolen – something that was confirmed when they managed to stop him after he attempted to flee on it.ricettazione
The bike’s owner was described, unsurprisingly, as being filled with joy at getting it back – and subsequently wrote a letter of thanks to the city’s police chief thanking the officers for tracking it down and returning it to him.
