Bicycle-theft, unfortunately lots of people have had to cope with this in their lives. Okay, it isn't a robbery, burglary or street-robbery, but for the person it happened to it's extremely unfortunate.
Luckily at Charlois Police, we have a sharp-eyed motorcycle policeman. He drove on the Brielselaan next to the metrostation. He got an gut feeling by the abnormal behavior of a man at the bicycle parking. As if the man was planning to do something bad. The policeman reported the situation to the camera-surveillance enforcement, so they could keep an eye out on the situation, while he could cover a short distance away from the scene. Within 3 minutes the suspect had stolen a bicycle, within 3 minutes and 15 seconds he was apprehended... ;) You can watch the whole situation in the video.
It's often hard for the detective force, who are dealing with these cases, to find the owner of a stolen bicycle. Ofcourse there hasn't been filed a police report yet and unfortunately bicycles do not have a numberplate so we can easily figure out who the owner is.
What you can do at most is to engrave your bicycle, but the least you can do, is to note down the frame number. So if your bicycle might get stolen, you can at least declare the frame number in the police report. Maybe we already have arrested a crook with your bicycle in his possession! So, always file a police report!
