Chicago Stolen Bike Registry

The bike was parked in front of my apartment inside my gated patio area, and it was locked to a metal railing leading up to the stairs of my apartment. I have a very heavy duty U-Lock, and the lock was still on the railing this morning, unharmed, so it appears as if they somehow maneuvered the bike handles through the lock. Although this seems unlikely as I believe the frame was also locked up. So this leads me to believe that they may have had some sort of universal key to unlock the U-Lock?? Not sure what happened. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

My bike was stolen at 68th & Jeffery. Kid decided to take a bike off of CTA Jeffery Bus. He took off riding it in South Shore Neighborhood.

The bike was stolen some time between 8pm and 11pm, it was last seen before 8. It was a rainy night. Bike was left unlocked in my backyard (alley door is locked and high). At 11, we realized the bike was no longer there when we saw our alley door had been opened and our side door was too. There were two other bikes near it, also unlocked, but only this one was taken. I live in a house, my backyard is not easy to look into because of high fence.

It was in my enclosed back yard. While I went in to unload groceries and answer the phone.

Locked backyard shed - 2 bikes stolen. Tommaso Mondial 2007 and Gray Fisher Wahoo - Black with yellow and red writing. Loews shed with pad lock - keyed. The shed locking hole was shattered allowing the door to be opened which the lock was never disengaged. Yard and fenced with gates as well.

Climbed metal fence, went on deck.

Playing basketball at wicker park. Basketball game moved to other side of court there for 10 minutes and bike was stoled.

Bike was locked outside of Timothy O'Tools bar for an hour. When I came outside the lock was left on the ground. Incident was caught on camera, the lock was cut with bolt cutters.

U-lock was bent out of original shape, snapped off from its attachment and left on the ground- fence was bent. Incident occurred sometime between 1am and 11:30am on July 27th, 2014.

Sometime between 8:45 AM and 5:00 PM on July 28th, the bike was taken from 740 N. La Salle where it was locked in front of Think Simple Cafe.

Came home and bike was gone from my home.

My bike was leaning against the railing of my back porch, which overlooks the locked courtyard of my apartment complex in Rogers Park. I went inside around 3:30p to put away groceries and became distracted with a variety of chores. I returned a few hours later, around 7p, to find the bike had vanished.

I went to visit relatives in the burbs , came back and the lock was cut through the cable sitting on the ground next to where i locked it.

Bike was locked to chain link fence. Person cut the fence and remove the bike and lock all together.

Bike was taken out of the garage between 8:15-9pm on Saturday July 12, 2014.

This bike was stolen from my yard. Ripped from the fence post and taken down the street. The bike was updated with contemporary parts. BROOKS SADDLE, SCHWALBE GREENGUARD GATORSKIN WHEELS, VELO ORANGE HANDLEBARS, 70 MM NITTO QUILL.

Both Front and back ground floor doors left open, gates to outside left open, perpetrator(s) entered building, took bikes and left without closing anything.

Both front and back gates, plus both locked doors to apartment building were open. I live on the third floor, and those who stole it explored freely in the building to find bikes in a foyer, at which point they were stolen. THe doors were not shut upon exit.

The bike had two locks. One on the front tire and through the frame and one on the back tire through the frame.

Someone entered, or was already in, the back porch area which you have to enter through an alley, turn and open the back gate with a key, go up the stairs and around the corner to the left to find the bike. There was another bike next to it, unlocked, that was not taken. The stolen bike had its lock(s) cut and removed with the bike.
