According to the PPB, up to two suspects broke into cars and stole three bikes from a nearby home at SE 36th and Henry (map).

“An alert neighborhood resident took pictures of the suspects as they rode the stolen bicycles in the neighborhood,” reads the police statement.

We’ve gotten recent tips about brazen bike thefts in other parts of the city, so let this be another reminder that June and July always see a major uptick in bike theft. Tis the season, so take extra caution: Never leave your bike unlocked — even if its in your yard or on your porch.

If you see the guys in these photos, contact PPB Detective Chris Brace via email at chris.brace@portlandoregon.gov or call (503) 823-0541.
