A shameless thief has been caught on camera carrying out a late-night raid — stealing a £2,000 electric bike from a car while the owner slept.

The bold break-in happened on Coneygree Road, Stanground, Peterborugh, between 11pm and 12:30am.

MIDNIGHT STRIKE

Under the cover of darkness, the suspect targeted a parked car — making off with a high-value electric bike and a North Face jacket in a matter of minutes.

“Let’s make him famous.” CCTV shows a man stealing a £2,000 MiRiDER electric bike in Stanground. He also took a North Face jacket — and left behind a key piece of evidence. This photo from CCTV attempting to break into the car – he is wearing a jacket with the word king on front and a huge crown on the rear

Now, the victim is urging the public to help identify him — saying someone, somewhere, will recognise the face caught on camera.

A COSTLY LOSS

The stolen bike is a MiRiDER electric model worth around £2,000 — and had only been bought weeks earlier.

Known for their UK-built quality and precision engineering, MiRiDER bikes don’t come cheap — making the theft all the more frustrating.

THE CLUE HE LEFT BEHIND

In a careless mistake that could prove crucial, the suspect left behind a lighter inside the vehicle.

A key clue: the lighter left behind inside the car after the break-in.

The item has now been handed over to police as potential evidence.

POLICE INFORMED

CCTV footage and evidence is being passed to Cambridgeshire Police as enquiries continue.

DO YOU KNOW HIM?

The victim is now appealing directly to the public.

The £2,000 MiRiDER electric bike on the day it was bought — just weeks before it was stolen.

Because in cases like this, it only takes one person to recognise a face — and turn a crime into an arrest.
