In Downtown Vancouver, 18-year-old Rylind MacKinnon was doing what any normal first year student would do on move-in day: moving the large pile of boxes to her room, meeting her roommates, and getting settled into her new home away from home.

That all had to be quickly put on hold when she walked back down to her mom’s car and realized her bike had been ripped off the rack on the back.

“I figured, okay, let's just go down the street and see if anyone has it,” said MacKinnon. “Sure enough, I spotted it and I just went up to the guy and took it back saying, this is my bike, I'm gonna have to take this back from you and I rode off.” ...
