Trek 1000 road bike

What happened

As recorded on surveillance camera: a tall, slender man scaled the back fence & railing of the building, removed the bike from the 2nd floor balcony, tossed the bike over the railing, & rode it away. He completed this in less than 2 minutes, so he has apparently had some experience with it. The fact that the gate is locked & barb-wired, and that the bike location was visible from the office created a false sense of security.
