Incident Description:
After falling off my bike and getting pretty banged up on my knee and elbow I made a locking error, looping my cable through wheels and locking with u lock, neglecting to lock frame and rear wheel to pole (typical locking pattern). I was hurt so I put off getting the bike, all someone had to do was snap cable and ride off. I have no way of knowing when someone came by and did this.
