Incident Description:
The bike was outside of the apartment before the Billy Joel concert. I verified that it was still there and locked at 8 pm. I made dinner at my apartment and once again checked outside around 10 pm to check on the status of the bike and listen to the end of the concert. I assume it was stolen by someone returning from the concert. I woke up at 7 am and saw that my bike was not there, and the Combination Cord Lock was cut and left on the rocks in front of the apartment building.
