Incident Description:
I had my garage door open and unattended for, literally, less than 1 minute and there was a gang of guys outside in my alley who must have come in and rode off with my bicycle. They were hanging out across the alley at the Pritzer School on Damen (my garage backs up to the alley that is along the schoolyard of Pritzker). By the time I came out and realized that my bike was missing, I asked some guy in the alley if he saw someone on a bike ride by he said that the guy literally just rode off and turned the corner. I hopped in my car, but couldn't find him. He rode off toward Humboldt Park.
