Beef Burglar is also a Bike Bandit

My friend Tim Parsons had his rare Donky cargo bike stolen two months ago, and has listed it on the stolen bike register, contacted the police, and put out a Facebook APB on the theft.


And he's not heard of a sighting of the bike.....Until now.

 In a weird twist of fate, the bike can be seen on surveillance video at the scene of a recent meat burglary that happened on Devon Ave:

Quite likely the meat lifter is also the Donky wrangler. 
This bike is a recent design from London, and Tim's is probably the only one in Chicago. 


If you see it call 311 or the 24th District (312 744 5907) and ask for detective Kathleen Hayes, or call Tim: 773 837 9318
 

THANKS!

Why would you steal marinated meat? you have to cook it soon.  Anyway, I'll keep an eye out.

It could be he stole 80lbs or so of ground chuck, but the rest of the meat had to be tossed from potential contamination.  Laws over how food is handled are pretty strict, and when you have a robber rummaging around, you don't know what he does with it.

Thanks, Chi & Jonathan! I like trying my hand at crafty wordsmithing, but often fall flat.

The meat issue really wasn't the point here, it's much more about my friend's stolen bike. This isn't the Steaklink, afterall...

I understand, but it is pretty bizarre.  It is a pretty unique bike, hopefully someone will spot it.
