We done this one yet?
Bike thieves operating in Bristol’s Cabot Circus recently had a nasty shock.
CCTV caught two incidents of thieves trying to steal from a bike stand area next to the shopping centre.
In the first video the thief literally yanks the bike off the stand but is stopped in his tracks by two covert police officers who have been watching him. He was arrested and charged to court.
The other video shows two bike thieves with tools to cut locks.
However, they were being watched by security staff who stopped them.
Both men were arrested by police and charged, with one receiving a referral order and the other was given a conditional discharge.
