Street heroes foil Dublin bike thieves

Just when you thought chivalry was dead, these guys in Dublin have restored our faith in mankind.

Taking the law into their own hands, they halted miscreants stealing what is described as a red 'Giant' (bicycle manufacturer) bike from its rack on Dublin’s Drury Street.

Not only did these pillars of society prevent the robbery, they also managed to recover the bicycle and leave a reassuring message for the victim in the process.

It does have us wondering how these guys hide the capital ‘S’ that must be emblazoned on their chests from the public!

In all seriousness though, we hope the owner is reunited with his beloved red bike soon!

Well done fellas.
