30 minutes
Incident Description: 
The street was really quiet when I locked my bike up, not many people walking around and not many business open yet. No cars or other bikes on the street for that matter. I was out to coffee and returned 45 mins after leaving my bike to find another bike in its spot. There was no evidence that my bike was even there, lock and whole thing was not there. I would guess that the lock was cut because the pole was too tall for someone to lift the bike over without being noticed. If I had to guess, I would imagine the person that parked their bike where mine was may have been the thief. There was a valet guy that showed up in front of the hair salon at about 7:30 am, I asked him but he said he had not seen a bike where I had locked mine.
