Bicycle thieves nabbed as police seize wheels in daylight
Four youths ages 13 to 16 were arrested after police recovered six stolen bicycles and traced many thefts to downtown streets yards and porches. Chief Halford Youngs led the probe, with the boys paroled to officers and set for juvenile court hearings. One boy tricked the chief by returning a green bike he claimed to own, only to have it identified as another stolen wheel later. The case may send several wheels to the industrial school.
