Stolen motorbike found burnt to a crisp in Horfield

The owner of a motorbike, which was taken from outside a house she was visiting on the weekend, was left devastated after it was found burnt to a crisp some miles away on Monday morning (July 11). Karolayne Fagundes allowed her cousin to use her motorbike - a white Honda Pcx - on the weekend (July 9/10) before meeting at a friend's house.

Around 15 minutes after her cousin arrived at the house in Filton, Kerolayne joined them with her partner and says that, as soon as she stepped through the door she asked where her bike was. At first, she says, she wondered if her cousin had left the bike elsewhere, however her cousin assured her it was "right outside".

They all went out to look for the bike, only to discover it had been stolen. So the pair got in touch with other riders in an emergency WhatsApp group, as well as Avon and Somerset Police, in order to report what had happened. Then, early on Monday morning, they found out that a motorbike, believed to be the one belonging to Kerolayne, had been discovered completely burned in Horfield, near Auden Mead.
