 Missing bikes

Two Fenton residents have reported larceny of a bike recently.

On June 13, a resident of Crestview Apartments, 201 Trealout Drive, told police a black Huffy bike was placed behind an apartment building for a short period of time around 2 p.m. before the owner returned and found it missing.

The bike was valued at $100.

Aro said another resident reported parking the black and maroon Vortex on the back porch on the 400 block of Dauner Haus Street on May 27 and discovered the bike was missing June 1.

“With the weather getting nicer, we would advise people to be a little more careful to where they are leaving their bikes and it would be wise to lock them if they are leaving for any amount of time,” Aro said.
