Beth Harpaz advised her son to use his lock when he rode his bike. She bought it to replace one that got yanked from inside their building andwarned, “If that bike gets stolen, I’m not buying a new one.”
When Beth’s 11 year old son came back on Friday without his bike and told her another kid tricked him into giving it to him she decided to go to the police to file a report. A futile task known to anyone who has ever had their bike stolen, Beth was told that the bike would probably show up in the neighborhood. She wasn’t so convinced and when her son told her he knew that the kid graduated from the junior high across the street she posted a message on facebook to get the yearbook. From there they found the kids full name and were able to use it to find him on facebook. They messaged him and a relative (who turned out to be a third cousin) and made it clear that if the bike wasn’t returned charges would be filed.
By Sunday, the kid told them where to find the bike and the combination to the lock.
