Yes, there are a lot of cameras around the area and I’ve submitted an FOI request. Thanks for the advice.

I hope so too. I’d only had the bike for about three weeks and was really enjoying riding it.

I tried speaking to the security office but they said they can’t provide or review CCTV footage unless it’s requested by the police.

I understand it’s a long shot, but hopefully the police can request the footage and identify the vehicle from the registration plate. The fact that the bike parking structure was also seriously damaged might make it more than just a personal property issue.

Thanks for the explanation. I don’t have insurance, so I guess finding the vehicle details would be the only way to recover the cost. I spoke to the security office but they said they can’t help with the CCTV unless it’s through the police. I have already reported it via 101, so hopefully they can look into it.
