$2,000 Electric Bike Stolen 10 Minutes After Being Locked Up

- If you live in a big city or town, chances are some of the food deliveries you have received were brought to you on an e-bike. But the pricey electric bikes have also become a hot target for thieves. To see how bad the problem is, Inside Edition rented a sleek, $2,000 electronic bike from NYC Adventure eBike Tours. We hid two GPS devices in the bike, and Inside Edition Chief Investigative Correspondent Lisa Guerrero locked it to a stop sign post. Just 10 minutes later, a man strolled up, ripped off the cable lock and rode away.

What do you expect it's Inside Edition
Better start packing a fire arm because thieves will only get a slap on the wrist and let go
@@funnytvshows7804 how is that related?
@@SirJamesIGamerfuzion violence isn't the solution to violence unless it already happened. That's the mind set of a young child, you have to prevent it and by you I mean like schools and government institutions for not even talking about these topics
"He gives chase but can't catch up."
Literally right when he catches up to him lol.
Exactly
Lol ikr
The thief could tear out of his grasp after that, maybe.
Glad I wasn't the only one haha
News thing buddy
I had my bike stolen, got the guy’s name and address from security guards who caught him on camera, and gave the info to the police within 24 hours. Even found the bike being sold on marketplace. The police did nothing. And I never got it back (4 years ago). We’re basically telling criminals it’s okay to steal bikes, why would we expect them to stop if nothing is done about it?
Why Not pretend to buy it but pick it up? But then beat the S out of him
Cops don't care about cyclists and will automatically blame them in case of an accident.
"it's illegal to steal but man why should i do something to stop it"
@@Mutraxation you have to keep the criminals employed!
@@thisismyname9510 they he would go to jail for assault. There isn't justifiable assault on a thief
the main problem is there is no repercussions for them. The worst they have to deal with is a few days in jail then they're gone. In most cases nothing happens. Laughable justice system
Stealing bikes is so incredibly scummy. Stealing anything is scummy, but stealing bikes used for work is evil.
I saw a mayor that say he got his kid bike back from central market were was stolen few months back.. track-finder is the only hope but those cost extra $ to be stolen with the bike but so hard to get it back before they get it hidden into a building or garage..

lol meth heads or dope head. no solution to the problem. these people cant be punished..actually punishing them is a good thing. they get a nice warm ved, free meals, and free meds. the system.donr want them. the police dont want to arrest them. lol
@@billnunez4887 you’re supposed to mind your own business, it’s that simple lmao how’d you get all that from “I wouldn’t say anything”
It’s called street smarts. And no he didn’t steal the bike. He wouldn’t have been talking on the camera
I bet he would remember if there was a blow torch and some vise grips involved in the questioning.
$2000 bicycle stolen: Police sleeps.
$500 car stolen: Police chase with 17 patrol cars and air support.
what kind of cheap ass car is 500 dollars these days??? 😂
Like we litterally can’t own anything anymore in the city especially a bike without having to be super cautious to not be robbed. It’s so sad and angerning!
Your own fault for living in those cesspools.
You have no idea what nyc was like when it was actually dangerous and when you actually couldnt have anything nice 😂 it only cleaned up in the late 90s due to strict laws and heavy handed enforcement. The 70s-90s NYC was bad. Your bike wouldn't be stolen from a lock up. It would be stolen from underneath you
@@usernamesrlamoyeah because it’s everyone’s choice lmao shut up
Democrats control cities and don’t care about thief’s
Time to install hidden GPS System within the bike that includes alarming the cops as well
Cops don't come out for property theft anymore. You fill out a police report online for your insurance company and the cops don't investigate anymore at least in NY/NYC. I'm fine with this. Less minorities going to jail and I get made whole from insurance. What don't people get about this. It's the new normal. Get used to it. We all voted for this.
@@rustyshakleford5230 that’s only beneficial if you have insurance for your bike, which most people don’t, especially delivery workers
@@rustyshakleford5230 seems a bit sad to normalize something like that
If you have an iPhone, stick an Apple iTag in the bike.
I use a apple air tag that i hid inside my motorcycle
I like how at the end they just quickly drop the info and then skate over the fact that a delivery worker was stabbed to death. That 3 seconds of info seems a lot more important than the whole 3 minute segment on the thefts.
Right!!!
Legit caught me off guard
how is it important? That's not the topic...
@Ash J very true. However this is Inside Edition NO SHAME IN THEIR GAME!
Thats probably another video for you to watch.
disgusting, despicable. they need to make theft of any kind a felony
Stricter punishments for theft should be publicised on all media so potential thieves know the consequences beforehand
This is where the 2nd amendment would work, they wanna risk their life they deserve it
Unfortunately the answer isn't so simple. Increasing severity of punishment has historically done very little to deter crime. In fact, our ( America's ) current incarceration system actively incentives reoffending, easily demonstrated by our awful recidivism rates...
@@notmeee3729 what a stupid thing to say. Of course harsher punishments will deter thieves, and if it does not, keeping them in jail longer still will prevent crime.
@@notmeee3729so wrong, go check how NYC got better in the 90s
To the man who was stabbed & killed and not talked about till the last minute... rest in peace...
honestly atleast give a pause in his memory, something
It is truly a sad situation.
Exactly!
When the WEALTHY, PRIVILAGED embezzle billions of dollars by fake contracts, lobbying, banking, not paying taxes it is called entrepreneurship.
Businessmen that we should always look up to.
......
When a person steals anything under 10 000 thousands dollars is called thief.
Why is like that?
Presumably the Rich owns media so they write retorics.

Perhaps the locks and chains could be set up to E-lectrify the thieves.

Make a bait bike. Remotely lock out the brakes when the bike gets going. Add a taser to the seat and handlebars.
My E Bike would go boom 💥 if stolen 🤯
I like your thinking, but that might hurt a thief and we can't have that!
Maybe put some bomb under the seat and detonate it when the thief take off.
Just give it a misaligned chain guide so that it periodically drops the chain and they have to stop every time to fix it.
@Aluzky Or a small explosive. 🤣
Should have had cops in positions to intercept...that was poor...
But that would be like hunting down theives ..just like hunting animals bro..
cops do nothing to stop crime and stop people when crime isnt happening.
Cops don’t care keep thinking that they do
that was not the script for the story.
@@xpert4kali661 but isnt that the idea behind bait cars ???
What a sick society where predators lurk to steal whatever they can. There should be an alarm
system that electrifies the bike seat if and when the bike is stolen like that.
You can install them. And her lock was terrible, but most people dont realize how easy it is to break them. You have to get a real good one or it’s useless.
Here in Australia too, at Night, many people chain there cycles to street beams, but in the morning there is only 1 wheel left clamped to the Beam.. rest all gone 😅
“He gives chase but can’t catch up” he literally just caught up to him at the end of the clip
That’s what I said. “He’s got that fool” 🤣
I mean… he has nothing to throw at him. He barely caught up to the back tire and the last thing he wants he to get something caught on the wheel.

@@PANZERFAUST90You're genuinely messed in the head.
I don’t blame you honestly. After my e-bike got stolen. I understood why they get burned or dismembered in my home country.
I've had two bikes stolen; once when I was in my late teens, and the second time when I was actually a cycle courier in London UK in my mid 20's.
Back then I was inclined to be forgiving and think maybe the thief was poor, even though I wasn't earning much myself.
Before I became jaded, I used to try to have compassion for people who stole bikes; not anymore, especially not for those who steal a bike that is clearly the instrument of someone's livelihood.
I hate thiefs, but doesn't everyone? I can't believe people have the gut to steal something. And I feel awful for you and the people who experienced this, I never got anything stolen, and if I did, I would obviously be unhappy, especially if it was a $2,500 bike.
"Before I became jaded, I used to try to have compassion for people who stole bikes" Compassion for straight up thieves? Why did it take becoming "jaded" to grasp that victimizing other people is flat out wrong?
Desperation isn't an excuse. I was homeless in NYC for three years. I never stole anything except maybe a granola bar when I was hungry.
I've never thought about stealing someone's livelihood. I was even approached by other homeless people about medicaid scams (ripping the taxpayers off by getting fake AIDS diagnosis. 10,000 dollars in meds, sold for 500). I didn't do that either.
Empathy guides normal rational people. The reason people do these things isn't just because they're desperate, it's because they feel nothing for nobody except themselves.
They need to stop saying "expensive $2,000 e-bike" that's the price of a cheap e-bike.
That guy gave the worst chase of his life, literally was able to tackle the guy right then and there

He'd stuffed the backpack with random junk and the ID was fake.
Test tun before getting paid? No way
Gotta collect a deposit evidently. Hopefully not fake money. Sheesh.
Wow!! 😮

No test run unless you let me hold onto the money you plan on paying me with. It's simple people, c'mon.

That homeless guy saying "I don't know anything and even if I did I wouldn't say nothing"
Yeah, you're a 'real one' 🙄 that's why you got nothing to show for it
The reason the guy won't say anything is because he lives on the streets. If he talked the next day he might be found dead. The roaches protect each other or get eaten.
Time to cull these wastes of space
Imagine setting people up

Why don’t they have built in GPS systems if they’re so expensive? 🤔
stole more , they sell more
GPS Systems can be disabled and requires power and also constant service.
Secretly hide a Apple AirTag on it….best $30 you can spend
Drain battery faster that way
They forgot the part where the theft was their problem
How annoying. Looks like there's more bike thefts in NYC compared to a Southeast Asian developing country. That's crazy!
Didn't they just vote in another Democrat? No wonder crime is skyy hi
@@chatty2164 it’s literally been like that forever and just now u wanna blame it on democrats lmao
@@flysoulja how long ago would you consider forever? and then how long ago was the last republican gov? better yet how long was he in office and how well did he do? George Pataki ran for 12 years and had 11 years straight of crime dropping. but yeah ItS nOt ThE dEmOcRaTs FaUlT. if something has been bad forever then something has to change if not expect the same results.
@@flysoulja if the govt was republican you would blame them
@@dubblekil Except, the newly elected Dem mayor is a moderate (ex-cop and former Republican). A decent guy and way better than De Blasio. The crime rate soured lately all over the USA, but specially in big cities. And De Blasio wanted to close the jail's on the island.
That's what happens when you use a $5 lock
The police should place traps like these to catch criminals. When the criminal gets on the bike, it should send an electric shock to make him fall.
They should have a button on a fob that can turn it off and dead stop the pedals
Yeah they should
"They're being targeted because they use the bikes in cities that don't punish criminals"**
thats why you have to take the law into your own hands. conceal and carry. the rule of law dont apply anymore in liberal cities where they release killer thugs the next day. someone tries to rob you, pop pop pop! and make sure it counts.
@@BobRooney290 Soviet Union sent criminals to do hard and dangerous works. We should have some laws like that.
The greatest city in the world for sure.
Since it's an E-bike, it there a way to lock the wheels from turning? Like say using an app?
I hope someone steals my bike one day... It will be the last day of their stealing career.
