ST. LUCIE COUNTY, Fla. — A young man’s stolen dirt bike was recovered after an observant detective spotted it on Facebook marketplace.
Justin Gopher’s father bought him the new dirt bike only a few weeks before it was stolen.
A detective with the St. Lucie County Sheriff’s Office saw the bike for sale on Facebook well below market value and became suspicious.
The detective set up a meeting with the seller, ran the vehicle identification number through law enforcement databases and confirmed that it was Justin’s stolen bike.
There is no word on a potential suspect or what charges might be pending.
