\'Bait bike\' program produces string of arrests
Word of hidden devices spreads among thieves; free stickers to be issued as a
further deterrent

Bike thieves are taking the bait.
The Victoria Police Department\'s month-old \"bait bike\" program -- believed
to be the first in North America -- already has to a string of arrests, and is
beginning to send a message on the street, said Sgt. Keith Lewis.
After one recent arrest, the suspect knew right away why he\'d been caught, Le
wis said.
\"He said \'Is this a bait bike? Where\'s the GPS?\' We thought that was fairl
y telling -- that the word\'s already spreading amongst the criminal world.\"
GPS -- Global Positioning System -- technology is one of the ways the bait-bik
e program can work, Lewis said. GPS devices can be hidden on bicycles, allowin
g them to be tracked when a theft occurs. The concept is based on the widely u
sed bait-car system.
To date, police have been experimenting with GPS and various standard surveill
ance methods for their bait-bike activities.
Lewis wouldn\'t say how many bikes are being used or how many arrests have bee
n made, preferring to keep the numbers quiet in order to heighten the deterren
ce factor.
\"Any bike can be a bait bike,\" he said. \"If you\'re going to steal a bike,
your chance of getting caught is greatly increased in Victoria and Esquimalt.
Be aware: Any bike you pick up may have GPS, you may be under surveillance dir
ectly at the time.\"
About 750 bike thefts are reported every year in Victoria and Esquimalt.
\"We figure that that is only a portion of how many are actually stolen,\" Lew
is said.
The size of the theft problem was the impetus for the bait-bike program, which
is part of the larger Protect Your Bike campaign, he said.
\"Obviously, our goal here is to arrest bike thieves in the act, and have exce
llent evidence to go to court with and convict them.\"
Coming up soon with the bait-bike project will be \"bait bike\" stickers, mean
t to add protection for bike owners, Lewis said. They will be available free a
t the police station and various other locations.
\"When we have them made, people will be able to put on their bikes, making so
mebody wonder if their bike is a bait bike.\"
Other aspects of the Protect Your Bike campaign linked to public awareness and
theft prevention are having the desired effect, Police Chief Paul Battershill
said.
\"Although the program is only a few weeks old, we\'re very pleased with the s
uccess so far. Bicycle retailers downtown are telling us that they\'re selling
a lot more high-quality locks and people are using them to lock their bikes u
p, which was the main goal of the program.\"
Police department volunteers will be at Hillside Shopping Centre today, giving
out information on preventing bike theft.
