The LAPD is recommending Bike Index as a valuable tool for for reuniting owners with stolen bicycles.
Detectives from the LAPD’s West Los Angeles Division recently completed a bike theft investigation that resulted in a felony arrest. A stolen bicycle was returned to the owner because it had been registered on Bike Index.
On Aug. 10, detectives arrested a suspect on felony weapons charges at an undisclosed location. The suspect had a bicycle that officers believed to be stolen. Police searched Bike Index and located the owner.
The LAPD encourages owners to register their bicycles by visiting www.bikeindex.org. For information, visit www.lapdonline.org..
