“It had no tires, no rims and it was just sitting on its rotors.”

Mellott says she reported the theft to police and contacted her insurance company.

EPS was not able to comment on the incident on Sunday.

Mellott says she’s still waiting to find out the full extent of the damage and what it will cost to repair.

“It’s going to cost me out of pocket for sure, it’s not all covered by insurance,” Mellott said.
