Appx. 12 hours
Incident Description:
The bike was stolen sometime between 10:30pm on 5/1 and 8:00am on 5/2. The front wheel remains U-Locked to the bike rack. In all cases I lock the u-lock to by front wheel and bike frame. However, based on the remains I suspect I somehow missed the frame as I can't fathom how it would still be locked. There was a cable lock that was placed around the rear wheel connected to the frame. The cable lock was cut and left at the scene.
