Incident Description

Which type of area was your bike stolen from?: 
Bike was in a locked apartment or residence.
How long was the bike locked in this location?: 
All winter. It was in the locked basement of my apartment building since early fall on a communal bike rack. I thought I locked it to the rack as well but I am not positive.
Incident Description: 
I just discovered the bike was missing today April 25th around 2pm because my neighbor posted a note on the basement door that her own bike was stolen which made me look for mine. We think the incident occurred about 2 weeks ago around the 11th of April based on her memory but have no idea exactly what day or time. I am guessing it was in the middle of the night but do not know.
