Tired of you all moaning about useless plod I have this morning caught a young man stealing two bikes. 1 a blue and white fixie. 2, a purple condor road bike. This happened this am, Bethnal Green at 8am. I need to find the bikes owners. Please get in touch.

    Who cares about the bikes? Did the young man have any 'accidents' during his ride to the police station?

    I wish I was Batman! Instead of middle aged man!

    17 mile commute with no brekkie, lucky I caught him really, more cunning than speed. All for nowt though if I don't find the owners. Near to Roman Road, Bethnal.

    Can't really go into detail about injuries, could be unprofessional.

    surely their owners will report the theft to the rozzers? so they will be returned to the rightful owners?

    what locks did they have on them>?

  • Please don't tell me they get to keep the bikes if you can't prove they're stolen!

    P.S. - is this a hot topic?

    Excellent work, well done fella.
    I can't complain about plod and bike theft. They got my bike back for me when I found it for sale (admittedly after a lot of pestering on my part).
    When my wifes station hack was recently stolen they were very proactive. They then sent an email saying they had found him on cctv and had a picture that was being circulated.

    Well done.

    I sincerely hope that he tripped over once or twice on the way to the cells. :)
