Incident Description:
I locked my bike to a bike rack on the Congress side of the Auditorium Theatre building at around 3pm. I used a kryptonite U lock with a flat key and a cable lock going through both wheels and the frame. When I got out of the building around 7pm everything was gone. My only guess is that since there are a lot of giant pillar type things on the side of the building and nothing besides the auditorium theatre lobby on that side of the building, there weren't that many people around so someone somehow broke my lock and took the bike without drawing any suspicion.
