Man Shocked After Stolen Motorcycle Tire Was Sold Back to Him
A thief sells a stolen motorcycle tire back to its owner in Puentebella Subdivision, Barangay Taculing, Bacolod City, just hours after the theft.
According to the report, the motorcycle owner noticed that the front tire was already missing when he checked his vehicle. He immediately felt frustrated, knowing how common thefts have become in the area.
Losing a motorcycle tire not only causes inconvenience but also unexpected expenses, especially for people who rely on their motorcycles for daily travel or work.
Several hours later, an unknown person approached the victim and offered to sell him a motorcycle tire for P2,000. The owner quickly realized that the tire being sold to him looked exactly like the one taken from his motorcycle.
The offer left him stunned, as the stolen item was being sold back to him as if nothing had happened. The incident was immediately reported to the police. Authorities went to the house of the suspected seller, identified only by the alias Bugoy.
However, when officers arrived, the suspect was no longer there. Family members admitted that Bugoy had been involved in theft before and shared that he had previously been jailed for an illegal drug case.
Police also revealed that theft incidents have been increasing in the area. Several residents have reported missing vehicle tires, both from cars and motorcycles. These repeated cases have raised concern among community members, who now worry about the safety of their property.
