Revelstoke RCMP are investigating a series of bike thefts that took place over the course of last Thursday/Friday night.

The first theft that was reported was that of a high-end mountain bike from Flowt Bikes early Friday.

RCMP say they were notified of an alarm at the store at about 4 a.m. on Friday, Sept. 12.

When they arrived at the store, they confirmed someone had broken into the building. The management of Flowt confirmed that a black Devinci Spartan, size medium, was stolen from the store.

Around that same time, three mountain bikes were stolen from a locked garage and another was stolen from a backyard. All thefts happened in the downtown core area.

Even though two of the thefts were the results of break-ins, Staff-Sgt. Kurt Grabinsky issued a reminder to people to make sure their bicycles were locked up.

The RCMP is asking for anyone for information regarding the break-ins or locations of the stolen mountain bikes to contact them at 250-837-5255, or to call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
