Incident Description:
My bike was locked to my Schwinn beater. Both bike were locked together with a newer U-Lock, wheel through frame. The Schwinn was then locked to a banister at the front door INSIDE the lobby of my 3 story walk-up.
The thief broke the banister, then must have carried both bikes away since the bikes were locked to each other. The police were alerted and an incident was filed. the theif is going to have a hell of a time removing the lock form the wheels and frames without damaging either or both bikes.
