Mongoose Sycamore

What happened

My bike was locked to a bike rack right in front of my work, on Michigan ave in the loop. Was within eye-shot of the security guard's desk. Cable locked through the front and back wheels AND the frame to the rack. Don't know how they got it off the rack in broad daylight on a crowded street. There is supposedly security footage. I reported it to the guard and filed a police report.
