Incident Description:
I road my bike to the gym to work out. I parked my bike and locked it at the same bike lock dock area I always did. I locked my bike with a word U lock. The lock was just below the handle bars and connected to the bike rack. Upon returning to the bike rack my bike was missing, but my lock was on the ground still locked to the rack. I feel like the person had to unhook/unscrew my handle bars to take the bike. Why else would the lock still be locked to the dock and on the ground. Prior to going into the gym I checked to make sure my word was not still in my lock and that it was secure
