Description of incident
I was in Nawlins about 24 hours. I was at the Catholic Church southside of downtown by I-90. I came out of church the bike was gone. I had been talking to a homeless guy before church. I had given him a stocking cap, socks, gloves to stay warm. The bike has been seen with a drug dealer living on the steps of the Main Library [downtown] on multiple occasions. The left brake lever is bent, it has custom paddles instead of stock handgrips. they replaced the seat [YuK!!!!!!] The right side has alot of scratches on the crossbar from bike wrecks. the plugs on the handlebars are missing. Located at the base of the seat post a Bike World sticker [where I had purchased it from...] 6600 Douglas Urbandale Iowa 50322 (515) 255-7047. They can verify ownership. Color is actually Matte Black/Gloss Black. I will file a police report tomorrow, now that I have the serial number. the front tube has multiple patched from the patch kit I have with me. the water bottle cage broke off at the screws last month. an image is on Stolen Bikes NOLA if the one I uploaded doesn"t open here.
