Barter deal turns sour for disabled Buckingham woman

Published: Updated:

BUCKINGHAM, Fla. — An agreement on an exchange of grass-cutting services for a motorcycle went awry when the motorcycle disappeared but the grass kept growing.

A woman with multiple sclerosis traded a bike she couldn’t use anymore to a man who agreed to mow her lawn, but she says the man took her bike without holding up his end of the deal.

The woman said they had a handshake deal and didn’t put anything in writing.

 

If you see a maroon 2002 Harley Davidson 883 motorcycle, call the Lee County Sheriff’s Office at 239-477-1000.
