Oregon man tries stealing bike in front of police station, immediately gets arrested
By BOPHA PHORN Jan 1, 2019, 4:20 PM ET
It's almost like he planned to get caught.
An Oregon man was arrested last week for trying to steal a bike that was locked up at the front door of a police station in Gladstone, about 10 miles south of Portland.
The Gladstone Police Department caught it on surveillance video. The footage shows suspect Adam Valle, 26, wearing a mask as he cuts the lock off the bike with a bolt cutter, just before Sgt. Matt Okerman walks out to confront him.
“It’s dumb, you know,” Sgt. Carl Bell of the Gladstone Police Department told ABC News. “I have not actually seen something that blatant because the officers were inside watching on video camera.”
“The camera that you see is actually in our office.”
