PC Harry of the 'Park seems to have taken control of this.. He called me today with an update. The guy they took off to the station last night has a bit of previous for handling stolen goods so it's not looking too rosy for him. I was surprised to learn that the penalties for receiving/handling stolen goods are more severe than those for stealing them in first place. To deter the market for stolen stuff apparently...
Anyway he must have given them a bit more info about where/who he got it from as PC Harry is going to follow something up tonight. I have to go give a statement on Monday.
I asked about when I'd get the bike back and he told me that it had to be 'forensicated' first. It's my new favourite word.
