Incident Description:
My wife and I locked our bikes to a street sign on Sunday, August 22nd. We used a kryptonite cable lock through our front tires, the frames, and the pole. We came back to the bikes an hour later and the lock was cut straight through the cable, and her bike was still there. Only my bike was stolen. I flagged down a police officer who put a flash out on the radio, and I have heard nothing yet. I am in the process of filing a police report.
