She has shared on the Deal Watch Rejects community page on Facebook hoping it will help identify him.
She said: "Caught this little cherub trying to steal a bike at Sandwich station this morning 8.30am.... I know it wasn’t his because I spoke to the lady tonight who owned it."
The video has been shared among other facebook users.
A spokesman from British Transport Police said: "We received a report of an attempted theft of a bicycle from Sandwich station at 8.18am on May 30.
"Rail staff spoke with the suspect and he subsequently left the area.
