Garage or enclosed parking area.
How long was the bike locked in this location?: 
Last seen at 7:45a.m.; Noticed Missing at Midnight that night
Incident Description: 
There were two locks on the bike: one combination, one u-lock. I believe both were cut through, perhaps the combination was deciphered though unlikely as I roll every number before leaving it everyday. It was locked INSIDE the Midway Orange Line Station so I assume this was someone who professionally steals and re-sells bikes for profit either online or via garage sales during the Summer.
