HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) — A young boy is upset after thieves broke into a motocross garage and stole several bikes, including his own.
Early Saturday morning, Rio Bravo Motocross Park employees said a group of more than ten people broke into its facilities.
One of those people impacted is Shawn Wilkerson, who loved his motocross bike.
“When I would hit all the big jumps I could feel the air coming around me,” Wilkerson said.
But he’s grounded after his prized possession was stolen.
“Sad. Very sad,” Wilkerson said.
The park’s owner said the thieves used a crowbar to bust through the door and a bolt cutter to break through the bike’s chains.
“Most of the bikes had custom suspension,” Rio Bravo Motocross Park owner Danny Erdeljac said. “So the average cost of the bike was between $6,000 and $8,000.”
