Incident Description:
This was in front of the new Pet Supply store opening at Milwaukee and Paulina. I locked my bike up, as well as my son's, each with a separate cable lock, to the bike rack. We took the seat off of my son's bike and took it with us. When we returned about an hour later, my bike was still there and secured to the rack but my son's bike was gone and the lock was cut and left behind. The perpetrator left a damaged, unridable, bike in its place - without locking it up.
