Incident Description: 
I've been working out at the Lakeview YMCA for three weeks now. I noticed there were other nice bikes locked up out front and it seemed like a nice neighborhood. Furthermore, there was security on site and cameras looking right at the bike racks. Anyhow, I locked the bike up at around 6:00PM and walked out of the gym at 8:15 only to find that my bike was stolen. I filed a report with YMCA security and they said they would review the security cameras.
