More than good, it's great! If the outcome is a conviction and sentence, this, adequately publicized in the media, might just provide a deterrent to other sneak thieves.
Heres the problem: Thieves know that the MPD will not investigate a bike theft valued at less than $2,500. What really needs to change is for bicycle thefts (or any theft that interferes with a persons mobility) to be treated with the same degree of rigor by the MPD as theft of a motor vehicle (which even if the MV is worth less than $2,500 is covered by other state statutes providing for felony charges).

The fat bike (which was my husband's) was recovered at Pawn America on the east side today. It was nearly intact, only missing a couple accessories. We're very grateful to the MPD for the fast turnaround. The police have the surveillance video from the pawn store and will be contacting the person who pawned the bike to find out how they got it.
