West Seattle Crime Watch: Stolen kids’ bike, in the family for decades (update: found!)

| Crime | Sunrise Heights | West Seattle news

Maybe you can help find this stolen bicycle:

Erin reports, “Please keep your eyes peeled for this bike. It was stolen from our back yard [30th/Webster]. Last seen Tuesday night. It’s been in our family since the ’80s. Schwinn Chameleon. Has old-school spokey-dokes on both wheels. Has three red reflectors in back.” We’ll add the police-report # when it’s available.

UPDATE: See comments – police found the bicycle!

My son has a Schwinn Chameleon that we’re no longer using. It’s not in as good of shape as yours, but if you’d like it, you are welcome to it.

People suck. Really need to steal a kid’s old bike?

We have a nearly identical bike that our son has outgrown. You’d be welcome to it if you would like. I’ll make sure WSB has my email so we can connect.

Thank you! This has brought me to tears, and I would love to connect with you as it has not been found yet.
