Incident Description:
I noticed my bike missing when I came back to my apartment one day. I had it parked in my apartment's parking lot, which requires a key to be accessed. I suppose I was lucky it was not stolen earlier; it was unlocked all summer. I believe someone climbed up the fence, then walked it out, because you only need a key in, not a key out.
