Reported the theft of my kid’s bike to the school (in person and by email) and to the police (online). The school has some cctv, but seems reluctant to review the video - historical precedent suggests that it’s unlikely to reveal what happened. The police left a voicemail asking me to call back to arrange to give a statement (not that there’s really anything else I can add). On calling back, a 15 minute conversation (mostly on hold) resulted in confirmation that my lad’s bike has indeed been stolen. The earliest the police can take a statement is a week on Saturday.
