2001 Schwinn Mesa GS

What happened

I parked my bike in front of Draftfcb (where I work) at 9:20am through the front tire, through the frame, and around the bike rack. I came back out at 1pm for lunch and it was gone. No lock, no parts of the bike left, ALL GONE. I asked a biker who had his bike locked where mine WAS if he'd seen it... he said no obviously. No one saw it get stolen.
