their store. Upon arriving at the eatery, the victim noticed that it was the very same
person in the CCTV footage who took the vehicle. As he was about to approach and
confront him regarding my motorcycle, he noticed something protruding in his right
waistline resembling a knife. The victim stepped back and called the police.
