Officers are looking to trace the owners of a number of bicycles that are suspected to have been stolen.
Forty-five bikes were seized in Bushey following an investigation into a theft of a bicycle that took place in Islington, London.
The victim was able to trace the location of his stolen bicycle thanks to a security tracking device that had been fitted to it, which showed the bicycle as being in Harriet Way, Bushey.
Officers were alerted and attended the property, where they discovered a further 44 bicycles inside a garage.
A 53-year-old man from Bushey was arrested on suspicion of theft. He has since been released under investigation whilst enquiries continue.
Investigator Kay Leverton said: “We are releasing the images of these bikes that were recovered as we suspect they may also have been stolen and are hoping to reunite them with their rightful owners. If you think one of the bikes may belong to you, or if you have any further information you think may assist with our investigation, please get in contact with me at kay.leverton@herts.police.uk.”
