Incident Description:
I was returning from a bike trip and one of my roommates placed my bike in our locked basement but the bike itself was not locked up. The bike was placed in the locked basement on the evening of Sunday 8/1. I did not check on the bike until Friday evening 8/6 and noticed the bike was missing. One of my roommates also had a bike stolen from the basement. Since the basement is locked (and there was no damage to the lock) it would be more likely that it is a tenant of the building or a maintenance worker of the building, but I would hope that people would not want to steal out of their own building.
