  2. Seriously? says:

    Which of the bike owners is affiliated with a gang?

  3. Loquatz says:

    I am not sure “damaged” is the correct word. I’d call that “destroyed”.

  4. mixitup says:

    Damaged? They look somewhat destroyed to me. SMH This Island is going down the tubes!

    • Bernews says:

      Ha, we just amended it. We posted the police statement then dashed round Angle Street to see if they were still there. We had no idea what they looked like initially, but upon getting the pics it is rather obvious they are ‘destroyed’

  5. Bermy Gooner says:

    Damaged? More like incinerated IMO!

  6. smdh says:

    THESE BIKE WERE PROBABLY USED IN SHOOTING

  7. Get Real says:

    Where were all these bikes parked i.e. at a private residence, at a business?

  8. Sadsituation says:

    These bikes belong to the people that live in that house/complex. Heard a few of the gentleman talking this morning and they were beyond “pissed off”. They all work hard and quite a few of them are older responsible working people. Whoever did this is inconsiderate as this was there only mode of transportation to go to work everyday. They are not gang affiliated.
