Dixon Resident Says Attempted Thief Forgot Their Bike

A Northwest park area resident found this bike Friday morning, after their barking dogs spooked off a would-be thief Thursday evening.

Dixon comic show car owners heard their dog making a commotion Thursday night, but didn't think anything of it. When they went out to their car this morning, they noticed evident damage that someone had attempted to break into the vehicle, and believe their dog had scared the thief off. But not before leaving a bicycle behind.

"We will have to pull out several dents," the residents said, "They used a screwdriver to try to open the door both sides."

They've asked Patch to share this photo of the bike, in hopes of someone recognizing the custom spray-painted look.
