The theft should have occurred in Varberg at the end of October 2017. A delivery of 296 bicycles would go to a bicycle company in the city, but since it was a weekend, the tow with the bicycle container was temporarily stored in a haulage.

But from there the trailer disappears and is found later - empty - 8 kilometers from the crime scene. Surveillance cameras have captured the truck that drove it there and also part of the event process when the bikes must have been loaded from the container to a trailer.

Denies crime

A few days later the truck is listed at the port of Karlshamn and after a while there are brand new bikes of similar models in advertisements on sales pages in Lithuania.

Two men are now being prosecuted at Varberg District Court for gross theft and gross unauthorized proceeding. The two men deny crime.
