Incident Description:
Someone must have been watching me every morning when I ride and park my bike. I usually get to the Damen station at 6:40am and am one of the first bikes to park. I always park in the first spot. The bike racks are usually filled by 8am. I came back from work later that day and noticed there were two other bikes parked where I parked my bike. Someone HAD to have seen something. Especially that early. There is the coffee shop right across the street and it's parked in front of the CTA open door.
