A group of men in Brooklyn apparently decided the fastest way to steal a bike chained to a tree was to cut down the tree.
A video on YouTube shows the men early yesterday morning looking at the bike before finally chopping down the tree. One then rides the bike a bit, only to leave it right where the group found it.

The hippies will be in mourning for the tree.
A tree falls in Brooklyn.
I knew it, I knew it—but I had to watch it. It drew me, even though I knew it was the usual Amish suspects.
It wasn’t much of a tree and the axe was wielded unprofessionally, but that was probably more work than Tyrone ever did in his life.
Comments disabled. Easy to see why. Obama will not be re-elected, and by a landslide.

A bit misleading. I watched the video twice and saw one man chopping down the tree and a group of men trying to stop him, actually getting physical. But they do have to be cautious when the mans wielding an ax. The one who rode it a few feet may have been checking if it was still OK, or he was talked out of it by his friends.
I liked how the tree nearly fell on the dude swinging the axe. That would've been justice.
Funny thing is that the cops could probably show up there tonight and it'll be those same dudes just hanging out in the same place.
Too bad we didn’t get to see the part where the guy steals the axe.
Yep same dudes, and none of them saw a thing.
Was that a cop car at 2:09 in the video coming from the other way?
Could be.
