One clever genius in the Flatiron stole a Citi Bike and tried to pretend it was just another regular old bike by painting it purple and hoping no one would notice, according to DNAinfo. Of course, paint color aside, the bike still looked like one of those clunky Citi Bikes and still had a visible serial number, so police were able to quickly discern it was stolen property. Better luck next time!
