West Seattle Crime Watch followup: Stolen motorcycle found!

Mary from Twilight Art just posted this as a comment on our original report last month about her stolen motorcycle (shown in that report):

Good news. I got my motorrad back. It was recovered from 102 30th ave sw in a 30 ft ditch. They took the starter and stripped the ignition, but she will rise again! Thanks for the help and support :)

We asked Mary a followup question – how was the bike found? She says she got some leads along the way but in the end:

Ultimately the police got a tip from someone who wants to remain anonymous and the bike was recovered on the 17th. The rims are oxidized, which makes us think it was in the ditch for some time. The ignition has been hacked; the body was ripped to remove parts; and it was covered in mud.

But she’s gearing up, so to speak, to get it back into shape.

    Oh, that’s great news! We live so close (34th and Webster) and that bike looks so cool, I was sad to hear it was stolen–glad it’s back, albeit a bit ripped apart.

Sorry, comment time is over.
