Stolen bikes recovered and returned

RCMP have recovered four youth BMX bikes stolen from a residence in the 1600 block of 30th Avenue in Vernon overnight Monday.

Officers conducted foot patrols around the city and went to areas known to house stolen property. The bikes were located hours later and returned to the rightful owners.

“The relationships that our officers have within the community allowed them to gather enough intel for the quick recovery of the bikes and to get them back to their rightful owner before they were altered or modified,” RCMP Const. Kelly Brett said. “The officers were happy to return the bikes to the youths just prior to the school year commencing.”

Further to the investigation, frontline officers also recovered two additional mountain bikes that are being returned to the rightful owners.

“The investigation into the stolen bikes is still in its early stages and is ongoing,” Brett added.
