Incident Description:
I have had my bike locked up outside my apartment, on the railing that blocks off our garden from the sidewalk for about a week, and I have been using it on and off for that week. I had a kryptonite U lock that was attached to the frame and the front wheel. Whoever stole the bike tore up the whole metal railing to slide my bike off with the lock still intact. Other bikes may have been locked to it as well.
