Stolen & Abandoned

Interesting to see how long it stays here. The yellow sticker denotes that the Police are aware so now I guess it is up to the owner to retrieve it.

I hope he/she has not been hurt.

Shocking and devastating for whoever lost this bike in the first place. My sister-in-law had her classic Honda 90 stolen from the side of her house by a bunch of kids and it was never found.

[Dawn]

Yes it is sad unfortunately it’s happening all to frequently

[Casablanca]

Stolen or an accident, one wonders......

[Babs]

There is a story here.

It seems odd to think the police would not confiscate it and try to reach the owner in some way. It does make a great photo op for you though.

[Nigel Rogers]

Interesting

[Mags]

Very interesting. Perhaps a vehicle will pick it up soon.

[Diana]

It sure has seen better days, maybe the owner is not interested anymore. Great find and shot.

[Peter Dulis]

interesting

[PhotoCrazy]

Too bad!

[Ingrid]

interesting! I would have thought the police would take it...

[JackieR]

Reminded me of this week's prompt abandoned!

A sad sight to see

[Kate]

Having been a motorcyclist this is truly sad.

[Carole Sandford]

Quite a sad sight! Would interesting to know the story of what happened.

[Kathy]

Well spotted for the theme.

[Brian]

Well spotted and captured

[Kathy A]

My guess is it was stolen, taken for a joy ride then dumped

@boxplayer @kjarn @randystreat @carole_sandford @k9photo @30pics4jackiesdiamond @ingrid01 @photographycrazy @pdulis @ludwigsdiana @marlboromaam @nigelrogers @grammyn @onewing @casablanca @Dawn @kametty @foxes37 thank you all for your comments. It had definitely been stolen and dumped. Now waiting for the poor owner to retrieve it. Who ever stole it may have been injured but didn’t hang around for anyone to find out. It was dumped in a parking area not on a road and interesting next to a waste bin.

I was afraiid it was the result of an accident - we hear of many here. Better if stolen at least nobody would have gotten hurt.

[Wylie]

Somebody is heart broken.

Did the police contact the owner? Surely they would! I’m assuming it had some sort of license plate or sticker. If not, then the owner would just have to wander around, hoping to find their bike.
