Directed Enforcement Team (DET) officers recently contacted a man riding a bike near Jamboree and Barranca, according to the Irvine Police Department.
The officers discovered that the bicycle rider had multiple syringes loaded with narcotics.
The officers also determined the bike the suspect was riding was stolen last year in Irvine.
The evening ended happily for the bike owner as they finally got their bike back. It did not go so well for the suspect but he did earn a free stay at Orange County Jail.
If you live in Irvine you may register your bike with Project 529 so if it is stolen the Irvine Police can find the bike owner after the bike is recovered…
