The bike was locked in my personal storage unit in the basement. I rode it the day before I saw that it had been stolen so it was a short window of opportunity narrowing the incident to the night of may 22st and the following morning.

Bike was locked up against the fence in the garage. The lock didn’t look like it was cut open but instead as if it was pulled apart to open. The broken lock was then left in my parking space which is how I noticed the bike was stolen.

It must have happened overnight. Shortly after reporting the bicycle stolen, Owner contacted the CSBR with the following message: I found my bike; someone had dragged it to a nearby building's outdoor area. FOUND.

This probably occurred on the evening of Sunday May 17th, as it was raining all day and few were out. The bike was locked to the gate in front of an apartment building, and was held together with an older U-Lock and a combination cable lock. The locks are missing with the bike, but they must have been broken in some way, either cut or otherwise forced open. This all happened on the corner of a residential street across from a public school on the North Side in Lincoln Square.

Date is an estimate, but we anticipate the bike was stolen that weekend. We came out to the garage where we generally keep the bike and it was gone. I think that one of our flatmates left the garage open on accident and someone stole it. That or they somehow managed to open up the garage, go in and take the bike. Either way, someone got in and stole the bike, hung up a spare tire from a broken bike that was near so it looked like something was there, and left. Bike was not locked, but hanging inside the garage.

Bike was stolen when I went in store for 5 minutes

Left garage for 6 hours. Returned to find bike was stolen.

My bike was located in our locked storage unit in our apartment building in the basement. The latch on our storage unit (not the actual lock) was cut through with tin snips. In order to access the basement, one would need a key to both the front door to get in and the basement door for the laundry room and storage units. Foul play, we think so too.. No other units were broken into, just ours. We reside in a Hayes Property Building.
