Thief hacks small street tree to steal bicycle in Palo Alto.
The thief apparently used a handsaw to cut the Chinese pistachio tree about six feet above the ground, and had to lift the bike and lock over the stump and a metal supporting pole.
The bike belonged to a summer intern working for the Palo Alto Weekly on Cambridge Avenue (parallel to California Avenue). More: Palo Alto Weekly.
