Incident Description:
My husband and I locked our bikes together around a large tree across the street from Roy's Furniture (facing the store) using an OnGuard braided steel cable and our two U-Locks. However, both U-Locks were only connected to my husband's rear and front tires, not mine (bad mistake). Foot and car traffic is heavy in this area and we only planned to be inside an hour at most. The steel cable was cut through twice. They attempted to remove the front tire of my husband's bike but the locks prevented it. I'll be filing a police report today. Many thanks for offering this service.
