Incident Description:
Condo garage was somehow compromised. Two bikes were in the garage, both hanging from the ceiling. One bike had a u-lock locking a wheel to the frame -- it was taken down from the ceiling, but not stolen. My bike was hanging unprotected and was taken. The bike was basically without a flaw. I am still unsure how the thief got in the garage -- no visible sign of forced entry, and the person would have had to maneuver the bike between two large cars to get it out -- a very tight situation.
