Incident Description:
Bicycle was locked through front wheel and frame to the bike racks on the west side of Daley Plaza in Chicago, in about as high visibility a site as I can imagine, heavily foot-trafficked and within sightlines of a lobby full of security personnel. Baffling to me that it could be stolen in broad daylight from such a location with no one taking notice, but there were no surveillance cameras on that area (I checked) and the 6.5 hour interval meant I had no idea when it disappeared.
