Lawrence Park garage hit with bikes, scooters taken by teens

A Lawrence Park resident, Tamara Gottlieb, has told Post City that her garage was ransacked and bicycles and scooters stolen over the dinner hour on Saturday, September 8.  The door had been left open after a day of play and gardening. The garage was unattended for about 30 minutes. A check of a neighbour’s surveillance video revealed two boys checking out the garage and then returning moments later with seven or eight others. The neighbor said she had been menaced by the boys as this occurred. There are apparently many witnesses to the boys riding about on the stolen bikes and scooters. Through witnesses and other videos the boy were traced to the McDonald’s at Avenue Road and Roe Avenue. Witnesses there recognized descriptions of the boys and identified two of the scooters that were stolen from Gottlieb’s garage by their sparkly aqua-blue hue. The story does not say if police were called but the entire matter is within 53 Division.
