Ciao, stamattina mi hanno rubato la bici dalla porta del garage (era chiusa con un piccolo lucchetto per bici alla conduttura dell’acqua). Il tizio sembra essere passato con la sua vecchia bici, aver tagliato il lucchetto con un dispositivo da taglio e se n’è andato con la mia bici…lasciando lì la sua. Sono a Bertrange. Dov’è la polizia? Voglio sporgere denuncia alla polizia ma Google Maps mi mostra la polizia in farmacia…

Immagino che anche la sua bici sia stata rubata, quindi ha preso la mia come miglioramento (non una bici costosa, è piuttosto idiota). Devo portare la sua bici alla polizia?

Grazie in anticipo!

Aggiornamento: sono andato alla polizia e ho sporto denuncia. Ho dato loro la foto della mia bici ( Italiano: https://ibb.co/QjvnR1m ) ma anche la foto dell’altra bici. Forse qualcuno sta cercando la sua bici e io ce l’ho 🙂

Grazie a tutti voi!

Inoltre, niente polizia nell’edificio dell’apotheke. Sono andato a Strassen.

    The police will not come. They’ll ask you to fill out an online report and that’s it.
    I really despise the system here.

    Declare the theft with police. 

    With a battery powered angle grinders, it is unfortunately a child’s play to brake most bicycle locks.

    Just a reminder to all that there are only a handful of bike locks that will stop an angle grinder. Anything that will costs €100+ and will be bulky and tricky to carry.

    I never leave my expensive bike unattended, my cheap one I use a chain in most situations and, if I go somewhere risky I use a chain and a d-lock.

    Your security is only as good as what you attach it to too. A drainpipe can be lifted easily, it may have been a 30s job with no tools to grab OP’s bike. Even street signs etc can often be lifted out the ground without tools.

    If at all possible don’t leave your bike out at night. During the day when you go somewhere try to put it in the middle of everyone rather than hiding it.

    The police is in the same building as the pharmacy. On the upper floor. There is also a huge building rue de l’industrie, but might be for other needs, if not sure just call the 113.

    We had a couple of bikes stolen in brussels in the past. They also always left an old bike there haha. I guess its just jow they get around until they find something suitable, +gives them an excuse to loiter around bike stands.

    We learned couple things from it:
    *Insurance, insurance, insurance – peace of mind and you stay way more relaxed if it happens again.
    *No lock can stop a dedicated thief. But it can slow them down and, ideally, make them look elsewhere. So go for something visibly sturdy when locking it for the night.
    *Alarms: you will regularly forget to disarm them and that will be unpleasant, but nobody has tried to even mess with our bikes since we installed them. You have different versions, light ones from abus or you go for the disc brake ones like the ones used for motorcycles.

    Would therefor recommend a big bad chain for the nights, a more mobile lock and an alarm (or two locks) for the day, and insurance on top to stop worrying too much.

    Seems like the perfect opportunity to hand in their bike to the police. It was most likely stolen as well, but perhaps they can obtain a fingerprint off of it and narrow it down to who the thief may be. I think it’s about time the police does something to bike theft and collecting fingerprints is a great way of figuring out who it may be. I understand the police often times does not care about bike theft. But do ask them about it.

  7. It seems to be a trend. Same thing happened in our building, which has the garage door broken thus always opened. They stole an ebike from the bike room, entering the building and they left an old bike in the garage.
    Investing in an expensive lock is the only defence I am afraid. Too many scumbags around.
