On June 23/24, a reader’s grey Giant Anthem mountain bike was stolen in Denton. It has plastic fenders and a unique seat: two pads next to each other. Please email info@bikedenton.org if you see it!
It was parked right outside Kroger on University at around 7 pm on 8/27. We told the sheriffs that stand outside and they called the city police for us. The guy who had it wasn’t the guy who stole it. He was a vagrant that found it in a drainage ditch about a week ago. The serial number, seat, seat post, fenders, and hand guards were missing or replaced with other parts.
The police officer took the bike as a possible stolen bike. There is no way to “prove” it was mine so they are going to impound it.
The bike is now in police custody. Thank you all for your help.
Adam, excellent news! Any details of how they came across it?
