A New Yorker using his AirTags to find his stolen scooter found the thief and confronted him. Not only didn't he get the bike back, but he also ended up with a fractured nose.
and can be considered a Public Service Announcement , especially for those who like to act like a vigilante or think that they are Batman. Take New York City's Stephen Herbert who had the misfortune of having his Honda Metropolitan scooter stolen just three days after it had been purchased. Herbert had placed an AirTag on the bike just in case something like this happened.
And this is where you AirTags users out there need to take pay attention. Without the cops to protect him, Herbert made the mistake of confronting two guys in front of the deli and one of them claimed that the bike was his. Herbert told him to wait for the police, which probably was the wrong thing to say.
Let the victim explain what happened next."Next thing I know, I’m on the ground. They might’ve both been hitting me and kicking me," Herbert said."I was just hoping they’d stop at that point, get up and leave, take my motorcycle. And they did. Stealer's keepers." The bottom line? Herbert ended up with a fractured nose that will require multiple surgeries to fix. Oh yeah, he didn't get the scooter back either.
Apple sells AirTags individually for $29 each, or you can buy four for the price of $99. There are also a variety of Leather Loops, Key Rings, Secure Holders, and other accessories for the AirTags thatwill sell to you. If you do become an AirTag owner and use them to guard against the theft of your personal property, just remember that you are not Batman and that vigilantes can turn out to be sitting ducks.
The kind of person who would steal your personal property isn't the type to return it to you just because you show up, say"Aha," and ask for it to be returned.
