From a concerned resident:
Hi, today I returned from holiday to find your march newsletter in my letterbox. I read about a spate of bike thefts so went to check my shed… My £1500 bike has been stolen. It’s an ‘Orange Patriot’ which is bright blue and holds a lot of sentimental value. If you could help spread the word, a financial reward will be given upon the return of the bike.
If you have any information, please ring Dan on 07732811392
