Three bicycles were stolen from a home at 220 N. Beach St. that was destroyed by fire on May 25. The bicycles were being kept in the garage.
The owner, John Norton, told police on June 8 that the three bikes were missing from the detached garage, according to the police report. No one has been living at the property since the fire.
He told police that when he arrived at the property, the garage door was partially open and the hinge-type lock was missing.
He told police he does not know when the theft occurred.
A neighbor said she had not seen anyone on the property other than the people who were helping the family go through their belongings to salvage what they could from the fire and water damage.
Stolen were a red Nishiki, a turquoise, ladies Raleigh and a light-blue Scott. The Nishiki was described as 20-years-old and the other two were said to be two years old.
When the fire occurred in May, the three occupants of the home evacuated without injuries. The home was considered a total loss, according to a press release.
