Police are looking for the rightful owner of a hybrid e-bike that was left on Salt Spring Island nearly a month ago.
The RCMP detachment on the Island was contacted by a concerned citizen on May 25. The citizen said they had found the abandoned bike near Mouat Park.
“This is a pretty unique and expensive bike,” said Salt Spring RCMP Detachment Commander Sergeant Clive Seabrook. “Someone must be missing it.”
The police have kept the bicycle in storage since recovering it, and have reached out to the manufacturer, but at this point they are turning to the public in the hopes of finding the owner.
“We’re hoping by asking the public for help and putting out the picture, someone will come to the detachment and claim it,” said Seabrook.
A photo of the white e-bike has been circulated as well.
The RCMP have obtained the serial number on the bicycle. They say that anyone who knows the rightful owner should contact the Salt Spring detachment at (250)-537-5555.
