Incident Description: 
i went to go see a friend who was struck by a car on her bicycle, and is in rehab for it. when i came back, everything was gone. i had smoked a cigarette before going inside, and naturally checked over everything, it was all secure, and there was a bolt with nut through the signpost. when i came back, there was still a bolt with a nut on it at the bottom of the signpost. i can only assume that someone came along, decided they wanted it, and had a wrench, and lifted up the signpost.
