Incident Description: 
I was riding east on Augusta Blvd when something fell off the front of my rack. I stopped to go pick the item from the street, putting the bike on the sidewalk corner. I walked about 18 ft into the street and when I turned around to get my bike, it was gone! I searched around the nearby street and allays for the theft, but did not find him. There was a black male (wearing blue jeans and a blue hoodie), who I remember standing there at the time and was gone after the bike disappeared.
