Aalst (Brussels Morning Newspaper): Aalst police found five stolen bicycles, including two electric ones, during a house search. They shared pictures of the bikes online to help owners get them back. Anyone who thinks a bike is theirs should show proof of ownership.
The Aalst police recently searched a house and found several stolen bicycles and related items. They seized five bicycles, including two electric ones, and two bicycle trailers, along with parts from two other bicycles. Although they recovered stolen property, the reason for the search is still part of an ongoing investigation. Police spokesperson Lisa Winendaele said that more details cannot be shared at this time because the investigation is confidential.
How can Aalst police help residents recover their stolen Bicycles?
Aalst police published pictures of stolen bicycles they found on social media to help return them to their owners. This effort is meant to reach many people so that anyone who has had their bike stolen can recognize it and get it back. Media helps the police share information quickly, especially for those who might not know where their bikes are now.
The Aalst police are asking anyone who believes one of the recovered bikes belongs to them provide evidence of ownership. This proof can be a receipt from when they bought the bike, a serial number, or any other evidence that shows it belongs to them. The police want to help people who have lost a bike recently and have the right proof to get it back, as they work to return the stolen bikes to their real owners.
