"Last Word"-Presidential Bikes Burglarized

Monday, January 12, 2009

SUZANNE PRATT: And finally tonight, former President Jimmy Carter is no longer a big wheel in Atlanta's recreation scene. His eight speed bike and one belonging to his wife were stolen from inside the Carter Center this month. The Nobel Prize winner and wife Roslynn used the bikes to pedal through a nearby park in their free time. But Paul, not a huge loss even though the bikes were worth a thousand dollars each. Carter said he got them for peanuts. They were donated by a local bike shop two years ago.

KANGAS: That you news came from a true spokesperson, correct?

PRATT: Yes, I just got that.
