All-Points Bulletin for Missing Bike
By Kristine Krenz
****Please help!****
My 14 year old’s bike was stolen out of our front yard last night. It’s a 26″ Mongoose mountain bike, dark brown metallic with white and orange detailing. Whoever took it left their older white bike (how nice of you) in lieu of his.
My son is a mess over this. He RARELY gets anything this nice or new as I’m a single mom of 4. I didn’t even have the money to buy him the dang thing! It was A GIFT to him from a very generous family friend. And it was given to him maaaaaybe 3 weeks ago. I cannot replace it for him at all.
He’s a great kid who does nothing but help his mother with his 3 year old brother and 1 year old twin brother and sister. This is one kid who did not deserve this. My heart is broken for him right now. The only reason the bike was unlocked was because I asked him to go to the store for me to get a couple things for dinner. Then he helped me with his siblings and we both forgot it was unlocked.
“He has forgotten to lock it up ONE NIGHT and this is what happened.”
I’m praying this is another kid who did this and not an adult.
“Please, Superior, show me we are better than this and bring my son’s bike back. No questions asked.”
We will leave your bike sitting right by the porch where you left it. 1825 Ogden Ave., yellow house, affectionately dubbed “The Monster House.” Please Share. Please, if you see a bike matching this description call SPD. Thank you for reading.
