They literally went up to people on bikes based on their appearance and took their bikes if they couldn't prove ownership? Who carries around bike receipts? It's great that they made a serious effort with regards to bicycle theft after the spike caused by the flood and they did recover some stolen bikes. But what happened to innocent until proven guilty? The mere fact that they seized multiple bikes from their actual owners and forced them to come down to claim them is nothing less than a joke.
At first glance, that seems terrible. Pretty ashamed they'd do that in our city.
