Bicycle Stolen from Darien Garage, Thief Leaves a Different Bike at the Scene
|
On a day when a Darien family was moving items out of the house and into the garage, the husband mentioned to his wife that he’d noticed his daughter’s bicycle leaning against one of the garage doors and that he had moved it. But as they talked, he realized that wasn’t his daughter’s bike at all. He went in the garage and discovered the girl’s bicycle wasn’t there — that was somebody else’s. The 11-year-old girl’s bike had been stolen from the house on Middlesex Road near Hoyt Street, and a different one had been left behind. Darien police gave this further account of the incident:
A garage door had been open before the theft, which occurred sometime between 1 p.m. and 2:30 p.m. this past Sunday, Dec.
