Incident Description
Which type of area was your bike stolen from?:
Porch or yard.
How long was the bike locked in this location?:
I've lived in this building since February. It was stolen from my enclosed (supposedly locked) back porch/stairwell. It was locked to a heavy duty shelving unit.
Incident Description:
I'm quite perplexed at this because I live on the second floor and while my building is close to a busy street and the back door to the building is by a bank parking lot (empty at night), I find it hard to believe someone would enter just to steal these two bikes when there are many bikes much more easily stolen on the side streets all around here. I wonder if it could have been one of my neighbors.
