The search for a motorcycle stolen out of Florida led to the arrests of five men and the discovery of a Birmingham chop shop.

The investigation began June 8 when the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office was contacted by the Lynn Haven Police Department in Florida about a stolen motorcycle that was possibly in the Center Point Area. Chief Deputy Randy Christian said the bike had been stolen the previous day.

It was equipped with a GPS tracking device that provided a location on Shadow Wood Circle in Center Point. Deputies went to that address, where they found the motorcycle and two men suspected of being involved in the theft. The motorcycle was recovered and the two suspects were arrested and charged with first-degree receiving stolen property.

During questioning, Christian said, the men told deputies that a second motorcycle had been stolen at the same time. That motorcycle, they said, had been dropped off at a chop shop in the 3400 block of 11th Avenue South in Birmingham.

Investigators reached out to Lynn Haven police and confirmed the second theft. They obtained a description of the motorcycle and went to the chop shop to retrieve the stolen motorcycle. It was found just inside an open bay door.
