It seems the low life dirty thief has left another bike in its place. Which is no doubt a stolen one.
I will upload a pic of it to see if any one knows who's it is. And if it is stolen try to get it back to its owner.
I will put pic up of it when I get in

Have you informed the police and is it marked for identifying.
Possibly the bike left may be marked and the police may be able to tell you who it belongs to and if reported stolen - either to return to the owner or identify the thief if he/she just did a straight swap with their own bike

Fingers crossed there know to the police.
Its crap when this stuff happens.

WOW! You mean the police actually came to you? I sat in all day waiting after my Boardman was stolen from my locked garage, even after explaining about my son in High Dependancy in Alder Hey and the verbal assurance they would be with me 'within a couple of hours' and apparently they didn't even make the decision to not attend until over 24hrs later! Merseyside Police, totally useless, not interested, not concerned. Me now £600 out of pocket for my bike and a further £180 for the cctv I've now installed. Not even had a visit off a PCSO to view damage, take statement, obtain cctv footage, speak about possible suspects thoroughly disappointed. Any and all opportunities to catch perpetrators totally wasted!

WHAT ???
Posted By: Willo_ Re: Stolen Mountain Bike - 6th Sep 2014 5:24pm
I have made an official complaint and inspector is going to call me.

Police are nothing but useless good for nothings.

It's me that gets arrested for taking my own bike the 999 operate told me to take bike home.

Can't wait to see how far this one gets taken.
Posted By: j_demo Re: Stolen Mountain Bike - 6th Sep 2014 5:29pm
thing is, were you 100% certain the one you took off the lad on the prom was your bike. without serial numbers etc identifying it it's word v word.

Posted By: Willo_ Re: Stolen Mountain Bike - 6th Sep 2014 7:54pm
I am 110% certain I have pics of bike and marks.
But are the police intrested, like fu.K they are, they are all for the lad who had bike protect him, like fu.k protect the kid give him a kick up the arse

Bloody hell! Hope it works out for you Willo. Keep us updated.

Yes the bike may be yours, but the fact you took it off a minor (child) that also is deemed as theft. What you should of done was to accompany the child to his home address and spoke to his parents. By doing this you would also have an address to pass onto the police, who may have intelligence about the family etc.

You cannot take the law into your own hands, leave it to the professionals, chances are you may be arrested and interviewed. I would make sure you have photos, serial number and proof of purchase/ ownership of the bike to hand for when the police call. In my experience you may just get a verbal warning or caution for taking the bike back. If the child says you took it against his will, ie by force, then get a solicitor.

I was told by the 999 operator that if am sure bike is mine, then to take it home and police will be in touch. So i don't think i will get warning or anything else, and yes i took it against his will, do you expect me to ask politely "please can i have my bike back"
Posted By: _Ste_ Re: Stolen Mountain Bike - 8th Sep 2014 1:49pm
lol.

dont think he would of been polite during the theft.
Posted By: Finney Re: Stolen Mountain Bike - 8th Sep 2014 2:37pm
I am not disputing the legal ownership of the bike,but if the kid said he had been given the bike in June and the theft of yours was in August then the there is a discrepancy.
You said you took the bike against his will, if you look up the theft act you will see you are legally in the wrong.
As for the 999 operator telling you to take the bike, these operators are civilian staff and are not trained in the law, as all calls are recorded then when you are questioned about the taking back of the bike ( I won't call it theft as I know that annoys you, but is legally correct) you can call on the recorded call in your defence.
No need for you to get arsey about it I am only trying to help you by pointing out the law and how the police work.

I'm not saying he had to be polite, but there is a correct and wrong way of dealing with this matter. Unfortunately willo was given duff info from a civilian operator which may result in his arrest and possible caution.

Oh dear! It looks as if the police are just not behaving properly. Two in a week ? I just hope the Chief Constable sees these and manages to track the guilty parties for behaving so intolerably! Of course, they would no doubt have to contact those who are making the accusations also.

Yes you guessed right ! Get yourself a blue peter badge.

Dilly I don't need a blue Peter badge thank you. Willo has broken the law.

It is a shame Mark has edited my last post as i had only published the truth,

Finney I don't know what it is you have against Willo,but your trolling is becoming somewhat boring !
Posted By: Finney Re: Stolen Mountain Bike - 9th Sep 2014 10:49am
Dilly it is not trolling or boring, go back to your spanners and let the truth be told. It is not personal against willo , i just do not have any time for low life's that commit crime. Willo was complaining about low life's that stole his bike, he has become one himself by stealing it back instead of leaving it to the police to deal with.
Posted By: Dilly Re: Stolen Mountain Bike - 9th Sep 2014 11:03am
But Finney you troll him when he puts things up for sale, what does that have to do with the law ????
