A pair of frustrated parents taught their daughter a lesson when she failed to lock up her new bike outside a shop —by stealing it and recording her tearful search for it. Lucy-Leigh Redfern, 10, had been told by mum Becca Baker, 37, and her dad Steve Brown to keep her £150 bike locked up with the chain. But when the couple spotted that Lucy had left it unlocked while going in a shop to buy sweets on her half-term break, crafty Steve, 32, ran over to swipe it.
Footage shows little Lucy looked at every direction of the street in a panic upon realizing her bike is missing, before being left crying and shaking like a leaf when a nearby mum with children say they hadn't seen anything.
Becca said, “I've got a little boy too and I'm always telling them both not to leave their bikes anywhere. She knows better but kids are kids and they take chances. When she went into the shop, she'd been in there a good few minutes and Steve and I sat planning it. I said go and get her bike, just run over and get it. He actually had time to run upstairs, put his shoes on, run across the road and get it back to the house before she came out. I said thank you very much to the lady in the shop and explained what had happened. I think she's learned her lesson and she was laughing about it when I showed her the video.”
The primary-school pupil has since shown her friends the video and warned them all to be careful after being shocked by how quick security worker Steve was able to run off with her bicycle. Lucy said, “When I realized the bike was gone, I went to ask all the people around,and then went into the shop to ask for CCTV. I've learned my lesson and I won't do it again.”
