My friend lives at 5th and Main. One morning he came down from his place, unlocked his bike, hopped on and started riding. He hit the brakes at the first intersection and was met with a flimsy brake lever.
Someone stole his fucking caliper brakes!!
Cut the cable, unbolted 'em and vamoos!
I believe this to be a direct result of the peak in demand for fixed gear conversions. One set of brakes = two finished fixies on CL. BaaaAaad thieving Hobbitses!!

People stealing brakes off someone's bike. That's really, really shitty.
