Kawasaki Ninja Motorcycle Stolen from Chestnut Street

A 2001 Kawasaki Ninja motorcycle was stolen late Wednesday or early Thursday from the area of Chestnut Street in Hellertown.

Hellertown-Lower Saucon Patch reader and blogger Tina Olson-Wilkins reported via Facebook Thursday that her husband's 250, 2001 Kawasaki Ninja motorcycle was stolen late Wednesday or early Thursday. 

Olson-Wilkins said the bike was parked just off Chestnut Street near Britt's Tires in Hellertown when it was taken.
 
"For sport bike enthusiasts, this is a 'niche' bike, as it is so nimble," she wrote.

Olson-Wilkins said her family is "heartbroken" over the theft, and she urged others to "lock up your stuff!"

Anyone with information about the theft is asked to contact the Hellertown Police Department at 610-838-7040.
