The guy actually lived a couple of doors down from me on Woodrow Ave.  It took APD about 4 hours to clear out all the stuff in his house.

FYI,  I live in the 5300 block of Woodrow Avenue. Zip 78756.  I have a neighbor that lives a couple houses away.  This morning Austin Police raided his house at 5401 Woodrow Avenue. He was arrested and police found many bikes and bike parts.  They were there for about 4 hours and they also impounded his silver Land Rover.  So, if your bike has been stolen, APD might have it.  This guy was a MAJOR bicycle thief! I had no idea.  He had a bike rack on the back of his vehicle and on the top. I just thought he was really into cycling.  All my neighbors were shocked too..............
