Chicago Stolen Bike Registry

The bike was located on the second floor balcony. There is no staircase that leads up to the balcony and the only way to the balcony is through the apartment. We were away from the apartment and our neighbor who witnessed the incident mentioned that the thieves climbed up the fence to get to the balcony, threw the bike down and rode away on it.

taken from inside of locked apartment building sometime between 12/18/22 and 12/28/22. --On 5/18/23 victim wrote us to say the bike was recovered: "I have since then recovered my bike. On April 29 I found my bike locked up on the corner of Church and Benson in Evanston around 1pm. I had Evanston police come and cut the lock on my bike."

I entered bike storage room at 7:25pm to check on bicycle and noticed lights were off in the room and that my bike along with several others were missing. My bike’s heavy duty U-Lock and metal cable were missing along with the entire bike. Other bikes in the storage room were either entirely missing or had tires stolen. My bike had been locked up for roughly 2 weeks before I checked on it yesterday. There are security cameras in the bike room but the property managers are not helping at this point. Additional info: The bike room is locked using an electronic key-fob system. To enter the room, one needs an electronic key- fob provided by the property manager to unlock the door. There was no sign of forced entry. When I entered, the bike room was automatically locked, as is typical. Possibilities of entry include: owner of a key fob entered, someone stole a key fob, they figured out a way to electronically hack into the room without a key fob, or other.

Bike was stolen out of a shared garage through the back door. Happened sometime during that day 8:00am - 6:00 pm

I was living in the high rise at 811 W. Agatite. My bike was locked to a rack in the building's bike storage area. The Building Management decided there were too many bikes that had been abandoned by previous tenants, so they gave everyone in the building a sticker to put on their bike ("UPTOWN 811"), intending to remove bikes without stickers. I put a sticker on my locked bike. The bike was still there after the culling of the abandoned bikes had taken place. But about a week later, I went to get my bike and it had disappeared. Therefore I can't give a precise date when it was stolen. It was sometime in the month of September, 2022. Thank you for your help.

I believe my garage door was open by accident and it was taken from the garage while I was gone for a couple hours.

My grey Kia Sportage SUV was stolen around 9pm, the car was locked with my orange 2021 specialized stumpjumper in the back of the car. The car was located in the private lot in the rear of my residential building (1000 n lasalle). Security cameras clearly show three people who appear to be male in winter masks, one with a bright red jacket, looking into the car, roaming around the vicinity, then eventually breaking into the car and driving away, stealing both the car and the bike. The entire incident was caught on camera. The police eventually located the car, but when they found it, my bike is no longer in it.
