Three reader reports in West Seattle Crime Watch:

STOLEN CAR: From Ben:

We had our vehicle stolen from the street in front of our home (41st & Juneau) last night.

It was a silver 2014 Acura RDX with plates: BGH8437.

Police incident # is 22-218151.

STOLEN E-BIKE: From Heather:

Our white Rad Wagon electric bicycle was stolen around 5pm on 8/18 from outside the ATT store by Admiral Safeway. It has one orange saddle bag (with a dark blue raincoat inside), and a drink holder mounted to handlebars. Serial number WB719J—–.

Police incident # is 22-218637.

ABANDONED BIKE: From Ryan:

I found this bike in Pigeon Point, it had been sitting on the side of the road for about a week. It’s not in rideable condition at the moment and appears not to have been any time recently, so more likely “dumped” than stolen…. If it’s yours, email me at ry.carn@gmail.com

The City wants people to change commute mode from cars to bikes. It’s past time for the City to aggressively apprehend and prosecute bike thieves. The high risk of theft is a big deterrent for many people, including myself, from using my bike for commuting purposes.

My commuter bikes over the past 5 years have gone from “bikes I won’t cry too hard over getting scratched” to “bikes I won’t cry too hard over getting stolen. And also, remember that orca card”. I commute far less by bike these days because of it.

Sorry, comment time is over.
