Threefromleith<p>2 shady teens all in black, hoods up, balaclavas on &amp; wearing gloves wandering about the Queen Charlotte St / Water St area of Leith - if you have bikes chained up outside there or in common stairs, I'd be extra careful they're not on the process of being stolen right now...</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/leith" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>leith</span></a><br><a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/BikeThefts" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BikeThefts</span></a></p>

Elisabeth Anderson :bt:<p>Data from the Met Police shows that of the 18,800 London <a href="https://toot.bike/tags/BikeThefts" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BikeThefts</span></a> between November 2021 and October 2022 only 206, or 1%, resulted in a charge or caution. </p><p>The Met said "It is not possible to physically send officers, or to carry out a lengthy investigation, in every case" but 1% is pretty much no cases! </p><p>It's as close to 0% as makes no real odds for people who lose a bike and a quarter of those people subsequently have stopped cycling. </p><p><a href="https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-63808296.amp" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-lond</span><span class="invisible">on-63808296.amp</span></a></p>
