What happened

The bike was stolen at my dorm, Public Affaires Residential College(That's the name), at Northwestern University in Evanston, IL. I locked it for almost three hours at the bike rack with a cable lock that has an integrated key lock that uses a flat key to open. I wrapped it twice around the wheel and then the frame and when I went to use it for class it was gone. i only leave it outside between classes otherwise it is in my dorm.
