Hmmm....
Hard to say what I would have done. It sounds like there was at least $50 to $100 worth of damage to the bike. I might expect them to pay for the damages. But then again, I can fix many things... so the repairs may be quick.
Then again, theft is serious, and in this case, they were caught "red handed" with the bike, although, in a week it could have passed through a half a dozen hands.
Did you see bruises on the kid to match the bruises on the bike?
