Twenty-three bicycle thefts have been reported to Traffic and Security, totaling about $2,500 worth of hande bars and bars. Twelve of the 23 were stolen this month.

Garcia said there were now 73 bicycles in storage. He said that bicycles must be kept in storage for six months before becoming eligible for sale.
