HAS YOUR BIKE BEEN LOST OR STOLEN?? 

The Police Department impounds quite a few bikes each year. Most of these bikes are reported to us, because they have been left at someone’s property. If you have had a bike stolen, in Breckenridge or Wahpeton, we may have it. Please take a moment to review this link- RECOVERED BIKES

If you locate a bike that belongs to you, please call the Police Department at (218)643-5506. If you can provide some facts regarding its disappearance and your ownership, the bike will be returned to you.
