Footage shows man eyeing up pushbike before nabbing it
A man was caught on CCTV stealing a child's bike on his birthday.
The thief can be seen walking along the road in Llysfaen and spying the pushbike at roughly 8.22pm yesterday.
In a flash he grabs the bike and runs off with it - but a neighbour caught the whole shocking incident on CCTV.
Mum of birthday-boy Tom, Sam Taylor-Leighton, was shown the footage by her neighbour minutes after the theft and quickly put it on Facebook.
Sam, 31, said: "His dad built this bike for (my son) and he uses it every day, he would have been devastated."
Her husband Daniel went out to try and find the bike or the thief but with no success.
Sam's post was shared more than 400 times on Facebook overnight and at 7am today it was found at Llysfaen park.
Sam added: "I don't know if it's because of the footage but it was found by a man this morning, it was such a relief."
