Incident Description:
Woke up to bike gone, helmet in alley. I had ridden home from work last night around 10:30pm. I took another bike to cruise around in hopes it was abandoned nearby but no luck. ADMIN NOTE: On 4/28/26 the victim wrote to inform us that the bike had been recovered by police: "It was found in a backyard nearby. I live very close to Swedish Hospital and it sounds like the cops noticed that the building it was in the yard of had cameras and then said they saw the bike. I mean, maybe I'm wrong, but I think if the shooting hadn't happened this weekend, they would not have found the bike. I suspected it wasn't very far, but hadn't had time to look in many places due to work. I combed some alleys and looked over by the river. It's not worth that much money and was locked to itself and it looked like whoever took it was rushing. If they'd had a truck they would've been able to throw it in to cut the lock, but it's not a super easy to carry bike, so I figured if it was someone on foot that they'd figure that out and ditch it. I had gotten a new lock and will be bringing it inside or locking it to something from now on."
