My BMW GSA1250 (HL19 CFP) was stolen from Bendemeer Road in Putney at 16.40 yesterday. Two shits parked up next to my bike, removed the lock within seconds with a grinder, straightened the handle bars, which snapped the steering lock. One of them got on to my bike and the other pushed him down the road, as they could not get my bike started They then made off down Bendemeer Road, at the end of Bendemeer Road they stopped and decided to silence the alarm with a hammer, two brave witnesses had chased them down the road taking pictures on their mobile phones and it was at this point that the two witnesses were threatened with the hammer so decided to back off.
They then turned onto Putney Embankment, at this point it is presumed the bike was put into a van as when the witnesses gained the courage to follow them on to the Embankment they had disappeared.
Two people called 999 but they didn’t attend the scene, all I have to show for my lovely bike is a crime reference number.
The bike was locked, alarmed, padlocked and Datataged but it was removed in seconds
I have called the witnesses and thanked them, one guy apologised and said he wished he could have done more.
One other witnesses said the alarm makes a bloody racket but they silenced it with one blow of the hammer.
