California Family Outsmarts Bike Thief With This Modern Technology...

Johnny Ehrman depends on the electronic bike to get back and forth to work and uses it for miles daily. The news that it had been stolen was heartbreaking.

According to Fox News, “‘I drive 12 miles a day,’ Ehrman told FOX 11, Los Angeles. ‘I was sobbing outside my workplace. I had some of my coworkers be like, ‘What’s happening? Where is your bike?’”

She took precautions so she didn’t encourage theft. The pedals and wheels were locked in place. Ehrman even took out the battery. However, the bike wasn’t chained to a fixed structure to prevent someone from carrying it off. Thankfully, Ehrman placed an Apple AirTag on the bike.

After realizing the bike was stolen, Ehrman contacted David, her father. First, they called the authorities. Then, they quickly used the AirTag to track down the bike, which was still moving.

Fox News says, “David tracked the e-bike until it stopped at an apartment near the family’s Orange County home. After he went to the exact location of the e-bike, he had a ‘brief confrontation’ with the man who attempted to steal his daughter’s e-bike.”

Fox says, “‘As much as the convenience of technology plays a vital role in the quality of our lives, we want to remind our communities to utilize their local law enforcement services when they’ve been victimized by a crime instead of placing themselves into harm’s way,’ the spokesperson said.”
