Incident Description:
I'm not sure when exactly it happened, but it was between 9 pm and this morning at 9 am. My building has a designated bike room and I typically keep the bike in the same convenient spot at the end so when I got home, I placed it there. I don't usually lock it as there aren't many active cyclists in the building. When I went in to get my bike to ride to work, it was gone. I suspect either another tenant from the building took it, tipped someone off or forgot to close the rear door completely and someone else came in and grabbed it. I know...it should have been locked. My building is fairly small and safe, so I guess I assumed too much.
