[US] e-bikes left, moved around neighborhood
A suburban neighborhood has observed unbranded dirt-bike-style e-bikes left at random locations over several weeks. The bikes appear for a few days in each spot, are not owned by residents, and have been moved between multiple locations, including a cul-de-sac gazebo. Possible theories include neighborhood teens hiding them or storage of stolen goods.
