At the moment, we seem to be posting more stolen bikes to our site then bikes we have to sell, so it’s nice to hear at least one ABQ bike thief has been caught. 52 year old Albert Gutierrez was arrested Friday and charged with seven counts of larceny after being witnessed stealing a bike from UNM campus and leaving a coffee cup with his fingerprints at the scene. Gutierrez has allegedly stolen at least 7 bikes from the UNM campus and pawned them at a local pawn shop. See this Albuquerque Journal story and read all about it.
On another note, two days ago I walked out of 7-11 at Lomas and 12th street and found someone trying to steal my back wheel off of my bike that was locked up in front of Lowe’s grocery store. What the hell is a matter with people?
If your bike has been stolen, feel free to email the details to info@505recyclery.com and we’ll post it to the site.
