Incident Description:
Bike was stolen from inside a locked bike room that is only accessible from the back yard of residence. Perpetrator had to get thru a locked gate and force his way into bike storage room. Bike was locked with a chain and combo lock to a standing steel shelving unit. No sign of lock or chain was left. Other (not locked) bikes were also taken. No one saw or reported anything suspicious, but I suspect thieves had to know bikes were in there b/c they are not visible to general public in any way.
