Incident Description
Which type of area was your bike stolen from?:
Storage room.
How long was the bike locked in this location?:
This bike was in the storage room in my garage at my apartment building. The garage and storage room were locked. No sign of forced entry. Very possibly someone recovered a set of keys, or a bad ex-tenant stole them.
Incident Description:
This bike was stolen along with my girlfriend's Trek Hybrid bike sometime during the workday. The garages were all closed... and we believe this may have been the work of someone who got their hands on building keys, or possibly an ex-tenant. We do not have a serial number or photo for her bike. I have my serial number, but no photo as I just purchased the bike 5 days prior and had not even installed my accessories yet. This is the second bike I have had stolen out of this garage; however, the last one was left out in the open in the garage. Very possibly someone is scouting our neighborhood for bikes.
