New Lenox Family Offers Reward for Return of Stolen Kawasaki Dirt Bike

NEW LENOX - A local family is offering $300 for the return of a dirt bike that was stolen from their Francis Road garage this week.

A burglar, or burglars, snagged the 2004 Kawasaki KLX125 between 5:45 and 8:30 p.m. on Tuesday, Aug. 22, from a garage in the 200 block of West Francis Road in New Lenox, said Melissa Haney, the mother of the boy who owns the bike. The two-wheeler is green and white, and has a Monster sticker on its front.
