<12 hours
Incident Description:
Bike was locked to a 8 ft tall metal sign post at the Morton Grove Metra Station. No tampering of the sign was seen. A U-lock connected the frame to the post, and a cable lock was run through each tire, the frame, and then wrapped around the metal post. I'm guessing they somehow broke the locks.
