ever

he

The

spending

More

His

By

Somewhere
someone
has
a
new
Mustang
Hustler
bicycle
belonging
to
10-year-old
David
Windsor
The
someone
took
the
bi
bicycle

from
the
civic
pool
two
weeks
ago
while
he
and
his
friends
were
swimming
It
was
the
first
new

he
ever
owned
It
shouldnt
be
a
hard

to

David

The

Bicycle

during

are

by
the

to
three

Over

the

up
to
300
stolen

and
usually
have
40
Jo
50

down
at

The
police
say
there
are
more
thefts
but
they
are
not
properly
recorded
as
thefts
because
people
do
not
re

�
port
them
One
of
the
big
faults
on
the
part
of
the
public
say
police
Is
that

do

Without

Colors

The
