Loss Prevention showed Officers video footage of the suspect, first shoplifting the merchandise and then cutting the lock/stealing the bicycle. That suspect was last seen headed down Somerville Avenue. A short time later, as Officers were exiting the establishment, a suspect accurately matching that description was observed riding a bicycle in the wrong direction on Massachusetts Avenue, opposite the Porter Square MBTA Station. Officers stopped the individual, who provided a false identification. Babyok had the victim's stolen bicycle in his possession. Babyok admitted to stealing the bicycle and shoplifting. Babyok was handcuffed and placed under arrest. Upon checking Babyok’s pant pockets for weapons, a clear plastic Vial containing a white crystal-like substance was discovered. Babyok advised Officers that the substance was "Crystal Meth." Babyok was transported to the Cambridge Police Station, where he was booked.
