A bounty of €10,000 has been put on a Dublin bike bandit who has been causing havoc all over Dublin city in the past few weeks robbing any bicycle in sight.
Exclusive footage obtained by Dublin Live even shows the hungry thief abandoning his own bicycle on the road when he sees the opportunity to steal yet another one.
The video shows the thief scooting through a street riding on the bike when he spots a potential new set of wheels to his right.
He leaves the secluded area and parks his bike on the footpath outside before entering again on foot.
Not one to miss an opportunity, the thief struts slowly back into the area getting his dirty hands on the new bicycle, walking it out before hopping on top of it and whizzing passed his old two-wheeler which was now yesterday's news.
A friend of the cyclist who owns this particular bike that was snatched said that the same person is "constantly at it" and locals want it to stop, hence the huge reward to capture him.
They told Dublin Live: "We're sick of it. He needs to be stopped.
"He's at it every weekend and has robbed a large amount of bikes in the area.
"That bicycle alone is worth €2,500 and that's just one of many that he has stolen.
"A reward of €10,000 has been put up for anyone who can catch this man in the act."
