The bike was recovered from the teenagers home. We saw footage of police rolling the bike out.

Where does the BMX bike thrown in the lake part come from?

Where does the BMX bike thrown in the lake part come from?

I have no evidence, but when reading about this last week, neighbors said perps had history of stealing bikes. Perhaps a previously stripped bike that was disposed of in lake.

Re: Bike in lake? - or - Bike in perps’ house?

Very important point, Naps.

I'm the guy who posted this, and I did notice the contradiction.

“The Conservative Tree House” is the source for the “lake” story, but no other media confirm it.

“Tree House” is probably the best source in the country for the Zimmerman/Trayvon Martin case, so I trusted “Tree House” based on past performance.

I may have made a bad mistake.

However, the tone of news reports filed in the last 36 hours seems to have completely changed.

References to the bike being found at the perps’ house have completely disappeared.

Plus, references to the mother “turning in” her kids have also disappeared.

I found one social media reference that claims local residents are posting that the mother's initial contact with Police was to “inquire about the reward.”

I'm an old guy who doesn't do Twitter or Facebook, so I can't verify that.

Anyway, your point is well taken, and I may have made a BIG goof posting this story.
