Incident Description: 
Locked bike up (U-lock) Division Blue Line Station during work. Returned to see both tires stolen (approx value $300). Asked the employees what to do, were very unhelpful in how to resolve. Not sure how this type of thing happens during the day when there is an employee on hand, but it did. There are cameras in the station but to my understanding these would not be used to try to identify any thieves. I called to file a police report but never heard anything back. I understand this was nearly two years ago but I just saw this site (as I mentioned the CTA personnel were no help) and figured I would at least add this so the statistic is there.
