Thieves Steal $34K Pair of Sneakers

A pair of Usain Bolt's orange cleats were on display in London—until someone stole the signed shoes, which are reportedly worth $34,000. The Jamaican athlete wore the cleats when he set the world record in the 100-meter race in 2009, the Los Angeles Times reports. Now, he's asking for the shoes to be returned. "I know u love me..but please why u had to go stealing that signed Usain Bolt spikes?" he tweeted yesterday. "I know u going to return it. Right?" Bolt, it seems, is kindly replacing the shoes, Business Insider notes: He tweeted a photo of himself signing another pair, which he will "FedEx straight to London later."
