Sort of 'stole' a push-rod today!

[Patriach]

So, at work we had 2 scrotty shoplifters in the store, and they left there bike outside, just a standard push-rod, but it was pink. They grabbed what they wanted, tried to do a runner, i dived on one, the other legged it. I grabbed the bike, told a sales assistant to take it inside, the 'lifter started getting aggressive and abusive, threatening to be back 'wiv all is ard mates, like innit brav'. So, we lost about £50 of high quality meat, and recoverd about £20 worth of the guy we grabbed...

Now, what to do with the bike?

P.S. I told the lifters they wont get the bike back unless we get the good back they nicked....like that would ever happen eh? Bike is obv's nicked anyway!

Hand it over to the police - if it is nicked, then at least the poor kid who lost it will hopefully get their bike back.

A pedal-powered bike, i.e. BMX, mountain bike etc etc...

You commited theft. You will be arrested. You will be served justice. You will be executed.

They would be VERY good theives to get it to Chester in that time...this was early this morning at work

If Burnsy catches you implying he had a woman's bike, he's going to be more than a bit annoyed...

Wouldn't suprise me with this bloody country, I would not write off a police unit attempting to do you for theft lmao.

We need to get rid of labour.. but who is good enough to step in! I wish a splinter group of Labour / Conservative would break off so that we get a nice combination.

Push Rod

Push Iron

Oh and hand it to the Police and tell them that the shoplifters left it when they ran off (assuming there is no CCTV of your vigilante actions )

 

[Lopéz]

A pushrod is an engine component found in OHV designs. How you managed to steal one of those at the roadside is beyond me.

malfunkshun is quite correct, the slang term you are looking for is push-iron

 

[gumbald]

Could be a locality thing again. I knew what he meant when he said push rod.

 

[Feek]

Well from my reading of the original post, you caught one of them. Surely you would hand the bike over the Police when they came. You did call the Police to press charges on the shoplifter you caught didn't you?

What I was thinking, but did sound like they did.
