Incident Description: 
I had it locked to a parking sign. When I returned, the bike was gone, but the Kryptonite U lock was relocked to the pole. The thief would have to have had a device to open, take the bike and then re-lock the lock to the pole as the lock can only be locked using the key. It happened on Lake Shore Drive on a Saturday with good weather. Many people were walking around so to take the bike they would have had to unlock it and look like it was theirs. If they had cut the lock, people would have noticed.
