Pretty cool story.
quote:

A man sneaks into the pits using a counterfeit press pass from Anaheim One and loads the bike into the back of the white F-150.

Social media went crazy and sharing the photos had friends and fans on the lookout in the SoCal area. The white truck was spotted on I-5, nearly 45 minutes away from the stadium. This is where the picture of the bike laying in the bed was taken and we got the good shot of the license plate.


quote:

They got friends to research the plate number and ended up with a vin, name and addresses for the thief.


quote:

After checking multiple addresses, they rolled up on a gated house that sat way back off the road. Not able to see anything and near giving up after hours of searching, they are convinced to approach the house from the backside. Laying in a field with binoculars in hand, they were spying on the house when the white truck drove up with Michael’s bike in the bed

How did they find it 45 minutes away in the back of a pick up truck?

That's some impressive social media.

Yeah apparently the guy who saw it happened to be a professional photographer and was able to get a pic of the license plate while driving
