Incident Description:
My bicycle was locked to a solid metal beam behind the back entrance to my apartment (in an alleyway) when I left for work at 7am, but was gone (along with the lock) when I returned that evening at 7pm. The lock was fed through both the wheel and frame of the bike, then around the beam. The beam was attached to solid flat surfaces on both the top and bottom indicating that the lock could not have been slipped off anywhere. The lock was a cable type with integrated key lock.
The bike was in this location for only 3 days.
