GPS tracker leads police to a transshipment centre<\/h2><\/div><\/div>[vc_column_text el_class=”teaser-imb” css=”.vc_custom_1634726232428{padding-bottom: 20px !important;}”]Arne\u2019s e-bike was not secured to the railings as well as it could have been. When he came back from shopping, the fence had been cut and his bike had disappeared. But in the end, it wasn\u2019t so bad: the IT\u2019S MY BIKE GPS tracker quickly got the police onto the right trail.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Missing: e-bike sawn from a fence<\/strong><\/p>\n

On a Friday afternoon at the end of September 2021, Arne from Leipzig chained his e-bike to some railings and went to buy a newspaper. When he returned, he couldn\u2019t believe his eyes. \u201cThe fence was ripped through and my bike had vanished without trace,\u201d he says. Fortunately, the expensive e-bike was fitted with a GPS tracker from IT\u2019S MY BIKE. He had purchased the bike just last year, as his previous one had also been stolen. Without a tracker, it would never have been seen again. Using the app, he reported the theft to IT\u2019S MY BIKE Customer Service, who called him back immediately. \u201cThe IT\u2019S MY BIKE team sent me a livetracking link, to help the police in their work. With this, officers were able to follow the thief\u2019s trail all the way.\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Found: a transshipment centre <\/strong><\/p>\n

After a short while, the GPS signal was transmitting so accurately that the location of the missing bike could be narrowed down to a precise address in Leipzig. It was some workers\u2019 lodgings. The IT\u2019S MY BIKE team immediately notified the police, who sent plain-clothes officers to the scene. Hardly had they arrived when they spied a man with Arne\u2019s bike coming out of the building. They could easily identify the e-bike thanks to the photos that had previously been sent. The man was apprehended and the bike forensically examined on the spot. Subsequent DNA samples from the perpetrator and the stolen item provided all the evidence they needed. \u201cThe police returned my bike to me that same evening,\u201d reports Arne, happily. \u201cThanks to the GPS tracker, the fast reaction from Customer Service and the seamless flow of information from me via IT\u2019S MY BIKE to the police, my bike was found on the very same day.\u201d Arne was completely satisfied \u2013 but not so the police. They suspected that there were more bikes at the lodgings and therefore obtained a search warrant. For several hours, officers combed the entire building. And what do you know, their suspicions were founded: three expensive e-bikes and large quantities of bicycle parts were discovered and secured, and one person was taken into custody. Police suspect that the lodgings were used as a transshipment centre.<\/p>\n
