Description
TWO BIKES STOLEN during the night of July 08. Thief cut through two Kryptonite U-locks attached to the fire escape outside of the house. Thief left a bike (presumably his own) unlocked leaning against the fire escape, which is now in my possession.
My missing bike is a red hybrid Raleigh Cadent FT 0 with a rear rack and climbing bars. Looks like the stock photo attached. Would love to get my bike back! Any leads or information greatly appreciated.

Obviously bike thefts are low priority for NHPD, but where your police report and serial number may come in handy is if and when they round up stolen bikes, which they do on occasion. It's a good idea to check in with Lt. Sharp, the NHPD District Manager for East Rock, too.
Meanwhile, if you have renter's or homeowner's insurance, you may want to make a claim. Sorry I can't offer more suggestions.

Bike's are usually sold quickly for $20. , sometimes kept for themselves.
-Homeless folk own some nice bicycles , way out of their price range.
- A while back i saw an ad on Craigslist by a guy selling bikes and bike parts in New Haven.
There were pictures of a basement with bikes everywhere

2. A homeless guy is riding a red Panasonic at Starbucks.
-Any consolation , another local thief has smoked up the proceeds of a sale and completely flipped out over plastic flowers etc..
