Incident Description:
Bike was parked and locked outside the doors of the Granville CTA station at about 5:30PM Saturday, September 26th. I took the train to work downtown. Got off train at 4:20AM, Sunday September 27th and the bike was gone. Bike that was parked across from me was also gone. CTA security guard told me the bike was definitely there about 3:30am when he walked outside for a smoke. He believes it was taken when he had to go to the platform to do a security check. He also believes it could have been a CTA bike sweep for abandoned bikes. Waiting to hear from CTA to see if that is true or not.
