Way to go the Harrow Safer Transport Team and the STC/CTF of the Met.

Maybe worth keeping an eye out on the Police auctions, if they are not claimed.

They had evidence to support an application for a warrant. Without evidence we can wish all we want. It ain't what we know, it's what we can reasonably prove to a Magistrate that gets the job done.

The Bromptons in the picture are all brand new. Maybe that's just a library picture.

My son is a copper and I asked the question !! is there a dedicated task force for bicycle theft , he declined to answer , but stated SW policforce budget has been drastically cut and they are not replacing officers who retire anymore , so there are less policemen every year and manpower is streched to the limit. I wonder why people take the law into their own hands !!!! Takes courage to tackle burglars breaking into your house and I for one salute them.

Definitely used, and of different vintages.

Hope these scumbags get some time inside.

Mine was stolen in 2004 or 2005. Can't remember now. The cops were breathtakingly disinterested. They told me it had probably been taken to Brick Lane market and there was zero chance of recovering it. Monumental plod failure yet again.

Yes, more than likely ...................... if they aren't too fat for it, like Chief Wiggum.
