The bicycle memorializing the tragic death of Aleksander Teimouri on Rochester Road was cut from a light pole and stolen last week. Police say someone used a bolt cutter to remove the bike and tossed it in some high weeds nearby.

Someone walking by found it and called the police. Teimouri's mother, Christina Teimouri, picked up the bike on Wednesday at the Cranberry police station.
