A 1953 Triumph motorcycle is on its way from Los Angeles to Omaha, where it was stolen 46 years ago from the owner's backyard.

The motorcycle, a Tiger T 100, was stolen from Donald Devault the night of Feb. 4, 1967, according to a report filed with the Omaha Police Department. It was recovered last week by U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers in the Port of Los Angeles.

Lou Koven, an investigator with the National Insurance Crime Bureau in Los Angeles, said the motorcycle is the oldest stolen vehicle he can recall being recovered. The California Highway Patrol also assisted in its return to Devault, 73.

“This is highly unusual,” Koven said. “Usually when we find a vehicle this old, we can't prove it's stolen, but the Police Department back in Omaha still had the original report.”

I work for the Omaha Police Dept and interact with records every day. Great work.

When he's scrubbing puke from the back seat of a cruiser, sometimes he sees the officer's citation book laying in the front seat.

That's his interaction with police records.

And I still wonder if the Omaha cops have learned about Dawes ripping that kid with brain cancer for wanting a last hunting trip.

They should love that.

The OPD lets him empty the shredders, too. He interacts with all kinds of records.

How does one 'interact' with inanimate objects, such as old records.  I understand interaction with people, and even animals, where each will have some sort of effect on the other.

I even nadined 'interact', and that didn't help at all.

Face it, the big guy's stretching something here.

Of course in the regular run of his job, he doesn't have access to things like this.

This was in the newspaper, and he didn't know a thing about it until he read the newspaper.

But he wants to make it sound like interesting stuff comes his way all the time, in his job.

I know I have talked about this before but I have had as much interactions with OPD if not more when I had to work as a security guard for almost eight years. One of those times was when some jackass shot his daughters ex-boyfriend three times in the back of the head at the place I was working. That's interacting with the cops. Not moving reports of peeping toms and DUI's of college students around the office.

Most DUmmies probably have more interactions with police reports than OmahaSteve. At least if you count have reports written up about them.

Something in this story is being left out. Or excreted you might say.
