Incident Description: 
Went to North Coast Music Festival on Friday September 2nd. I locked It up near the Green line stairs (Ashland/Lake) about 100' north of the main entrance into union park. i thought it would be safe near the security detail by the entrance. I guess I was mistaken. Should have used a U-Lock. This is an older picture of the bike but the frame is still the same. it was taken any time between 6:30-9:30pm. Karma!
