Incident Description:
I locked my bike to my girlfriend's bike in the parking lot of our apartment underneath a shaded area next to the fence. I left for a few days and when I came back the bike lock was cut and my bike was stolen. The thief left my girlfriend's bike and the broken lock which seemed to have been cut with cable cutters. Whoever stole the bike either had access to the garage door or climbed the fence, cut the lock and jumped back over the fence with the bike.
