Provo police will make adjustments to security at the station after a man allegedly broke into an outdoor evidence storage space undetected last month and took his own bicycle.
This incident is the first of its kind in Provo, according to Sgt. Nisha King, and officers plan to implement additional measures to ensure it doesn’t happen again.
Previous to Dec. 18, police had seized the bicycle from a person who was riding it at the time of his arrest in an unrelated incident. Typically, when Provo officers arrest someone with a bicycle, King said, they book it into a fenced-in evidence storage area and register it under the name of the person from whom it was seized.
