Bobby the Bike Thief, likely unrelated.

If you're not already reading SFPD's Ingleside Station newsletter, you're missing out on some seriously passionate crime reportage.  From their blotter, they were able to bust a bike thief operating outside of the 3300 Club on Mission:

Officers Morgante and Reserve Officer Martinez were sent to investigate a theft case. The officers spoke to the victim that told them that on September 8th her bike was stolen and that she had just seen the suspect who stole it. The officers broadcast the information and numerous Ingleside units responded to assist. The victim then led the officers to the location where she had seen her bike and the suspect. The officers quickly located the suspect and detained him. The officers asked the suspect if the bike was his which he replied “yes, I bought it four months ago at the San Jose Flee market”. The officers had an ace up their sleeves! The victim saw the suspect that stole the bike and could identify him as well. The officers conducted a “Cold Show” where the victim identified the suspect 100%! The victim was armed with photos of her bike and the serial number too. To make things worse for the suspect, forgot to change his clothing! The suspect should have done his laundry this week! He was wearing the same clothes on the day of the theft. Because of an attentive victim (and prepared), and fast response from the police, this suspect was arrested. Report number 110721326. This is the *****BEST ARREST of the DAY*****

On a somewhat related note, SFPD is stepping up enforcement at the 7th and Market stolen bike market.
