We made a complaint and the owner also made a complaint and I believe he's going down the small claims avenue. We had a visit that evening from an investigating officer who apologised and admitted everything they did was completely wrong. Apparently the two officers were new, fresh out of Police Academy and will be retrained, which sounds pointless if they can't grasp basic law.
Anyway, just wanted to share this ridiculous story, thankfully nobody was seriously hurt and someone has beloved bike back....no thanks to the police.
