Incident Description:
My bike was in an enclosed back patio area which is shared with neighbors in my building, and is only accessible through a heavy locked gate from the alleyway. The bike was locked to itself. I remember seeing my bike the night of September 10th. When I went downstairs I noticed that the lock on the gate had been broken and my bike was missing. There was also broken glass and a stranded red backpack at the scene.
