Default Central London Bike Thieves

Head's up:

One of the girls in my office was worknig late on Thursday & when she left the building there were three blokes trying to nick the motorcycles in the parking bay. As she say's:

"I called the police and they're aware, however, it's worth you knowing, as they were quite confrontational - and I only walked past (quickly!)."

Kirby Street, Farringdon EC1n:

Any info on the van they were using? Or descriptions of the guys?

Scum.

The appropriate police response to this call should be 10 heavily armed SO19 (or whatever they call them now) officers rushing to the scene and carrying out a De Menezes type of action.

No judge, no jury, no questions. Just kill em dead!!


Poor old Jean Charles didnt deserve to go that way but this type of scum have it coming to them imo.

ahh - there's one that parks up there that always looks out of place - all the other bikes are mopeds with l-plates. Always manages to put a smile on my face!

I'm at hte office now - thinknig is my bike safe? It's right outside the buidling but the security guards are a joke.

A thief came into the building & the guard actually helped him with his "heavy" packages!

second time it happened a thief got up to the 5th floor where Denis the quiet, unassuming lad from Accounts works.

Denis, bless him, does a *lot* of ultimate fighting. The stuff in a cage etc....The thief left empty handed. Not quite sure how he managed to get away.
