Schwinn Suburban

What happened

**This bike was stolen at some unknown time between August 11 at 5pm and August 16 at 2pm. Bike and burgundy helmet were locked to each other and to a standard, black city bike rack next to the bus stop at Catalpa and Sheridan in Uptown. This is a sidewalk area directly in front of a parking lot. There is a residential high rise directly across the street. Noticed that on the same bike rack, a blue vintage cruiser was locked, which had a city bike tag on it for it to be picked up. That bike had been locked there for months. Mine was locked there for only 2-4 days. **Please note that the PICTURE is of a very similar model/make/year bike. I do not have a photo of my bike, as I only purchased it in June 2014.
