Police are asking for the public’s help in finding the thief or thieves who stole $10,000 worth of motorcycles from an East Quogue garage last year.

Suffolk County Crime Stoppers and the Southampton Town Police sent out the request for help on Tuesday, March 14.

The bikes — a 2018 Honda CRF450R with a VIN of JH2PE073JK101345 and a 2001 Honda XR400 with a VIN of JHZNE03071K601275 — are both red and white. They were taken from a garage on Sandpiper Lane on September 22. Police said the perpetrators traveled to the scene in a white sedan. Photos of the car were captured by a security camera.

Suffolk County Crime Stoppers offers a cash reward for information that leads to an arrest. Anyone with information about the incidents can submit an anonymous tip by calling 1-800-220-TIPS, using a mobile app downloadable from the App Store or Google Play by searching P3 Tips, or online at P3Tips.com.
