Student chases bike thief, comes up empty handed
A 20-year-old female MSU student reported her bicycle stolen Tuesday near a trail on the west side of Bogue Street, MSU police Sgt. Dan Munford said.
The woman left her silver, Schwinn Frontier brand bike unattended on the trail for about 20 minutes. When she returned, she noticed a man riding away on the bike, Munford said.
The suspect was described as a black male, college-aged wearing a red T-shirt and green backpack. The woman ran after him until she lost sight near Taco Bell, 601 E. Grand River Ave.
Although MSU police have concluded their investigation, any witnesses are encouraged to contact the MSU Department of Police and Public Safety at (517) 355-2221.

Why not make a show called “To Catch A Thief” and we could start broadcasting it right here @ MSU!! Imagine the Episodes, how exciting. Only problem is, we only catch how man Thieves a year? Hmmm, maybe I better re-think my idea. LOL:D

So, she left her bike UNATTENDED on the trail, and is surprised that someone rode off on it?! And what was she doing for 20 minutes that she had to leave her bike on the trail? Come on people, it’s not rocket science how to keep your stuff from getting stolen!
Hahahaha!!!!!!!

Who in gods name would leave a bike unattended for even ONE minute on MSU’s campus?? That shows a serious lack of judgment for which one deserves to pay by losing one’s bike.
No no No
