Bike was stolen, along with 6 or 7 other bikes, by forcing back garage door open from alley. Presumably in the middle of the night. Bikes inside weren't locked to anything. Nothing else appears to have been stolen, including lawn mower, speakers, miscellaneous not-so-nice furniture, and lots of junk like garden tools.

I locked the bike in the back parking lot...at 100 South Morgan St; Chicago, IL 60607 at approximately 18:15. I used a Kryptonite U-lock on the rear triangle to lock the frame, the bike and a bar from the fence and the steel cable around the front tire. When I came out at 23:00 the bike was gone, no lock visible. I'm pretty sure someone used a grinder, but can't tell as no lock was left.

Bike was stored in my garage. Left up garage door locked but side door that opens into fenced yard was not locked.

Bike was locked to one of about 7 bike rakes full of other bikes just outside the Professional Building at Rush Medical Center on Paulina Street near Harrison St. Went inside for a doctor's appointment and my bike was gone when I came out. Security guards just inside the building were less than helpful, were not interested and didn't know what to do. Someone actually reported suspicious activity at this same time to a guard who did nothing to prevent the theft. This is a heavily trafficked area with people passing by constantly. I also found a silver road bike next to mine that was unlocked. I suspect that thieves took the lock but were spooked before they could take the bike. The security guards didn't want to take the bike that I brought inside the building. I just left it there with them and told them to keep an eye on it and wait for the owner.

handicapped parking sign pulled from ground and my bike taken.

I saw my bike at lunch, but when I returned at the end of the work day it was gone. It was locked to a bike rack right outside the Merchandise Mart on Orleans St.
