Please file an MSR at Caltrans website. You can also contact the CHP they my be more responsive than OPD. Thanks for reporting

Thanks for reporting. Does the city not find it odd that the homeless have a number of bikes within their camps? But Oakland turns their head, because they are homeless. Please, at least make a report if possible.

Thanks for the suggestion to report it to CALTRANS. I reported it to them and the MSR number is: 617329

I've noticed this as well. One of the men actually saw me looking in their direction as they brought up two bikes, and he watched me watch him for quite some time. It looks very suspicious, especially given how concerned he was that I noticed the activity.

Some of them just try to be intimidating. He knows darn well he won't face any consequences because Oakland has been way to lenient and stolen bicycle are probably not on a priority list, just like all the garbage cans they walk around with that they stolen.

One of the guys was spray painting bicycles yesterday afternoon at about 4:10pm.

Come on business license, Insurance, receipts, tax's I do not understand this whole double standard for these vagrants.

Gee, wonder why he'd do that. The city doesn't get it.

Please do something about this.

The issue has been taken care of. CALTRANS came in and cleaned up the area twice. After the first time someone else moved in and a new collection of bicycles started to grow. Since those folks were encouraged to move elsewhere the area has been quiet. Thank you!

Thanks!

Thanks
