This morning two bicycles and a children’s bicycle trailer were stolen from my house in North Park (near 30th Street & University Avenue). The items were stolen between 9:30 AM and 11:15 AM on Monday, March 13, 2013.
Below are detailed descriptions of the bicycles and trailer – if you could share and keep an eye out for these item it would be greatly appreciated. If you have any information please contact me at 619-727-7867.

Events like this challenge our understanding.
All I can say is what others have, to me, when I’ve been robbed.
There are a lot of poor people out there. That can’t make up
for the losses, but nothing can make up for the loss of under-
standing.
All the other stuff is true, too. The creeps who took all those
beautiful machines will pay, even if they’re too whacked to know
when the payback hits them. The creeps sometimes think they
have a right to steal simply because they’ve had lousy lives; they’re
one step from losing their lives.
And it doesn’t mean we can’t ask the question: what kind of creep
steals a children’s bike trailer? Because every creep is different,
and every creep will have a reason.
Good people feel outrage at this shit, and go on to do something
good.
What kind of people steal? SCUMBAGS!! I just had some idiot come into my yard a week ago and steal a bird feeder and a plant in a clay pot. Just because something is in another person’s yard is not an invitation to take it.
