Bike was in a locked apartment or residence.

3 days (locked on a bike rack INSIDE my apartment complex, which requires a key to enter)
Incident Description: 
My bike was locked up Friday evening when I came home about midnight but Saturday morning it was gone. I suspect someone slipped inside the buildling somehow without a key and cut the cable lock and walked off with it. There is no trace of it, and the place where the bike had been stored is completely empty.
