Incident Description:
I rode the bike to the train in the morning and locked it up on the bike rack next to all the other bikes. When I got off the train in the afternoon the bike was gone. There are no security cameras on this part of the station so someone probably walked up during one of the long time periods between trains and used some sort of cable cutters on the chain that I used and either rode off on it or put it in the back of a vehicle and drove off.
