Incident Description:
The bike was locked to itself with a U-lock through the front wheel and frame and a cable lock through the rear wheel. It was visible from the alley and the gate sometimes sticks, so I think someone was able to get in through the gate and carry off the locked bike, because I couldn't find the broken lock.
