Incident Description:
My bike along with my girlfriend's bike and another person's bike were in the vestibule near the staircase leading up to her apartment. The locked door to her building has a buzzer for entry and the buzzer malfunctioned and was continuously buzzing (which we did not notice). The person who took my bike was able to enter the building due to the malfunction on the door's lock.
One week since the original post: "On a walk with my dog, I found my bike lock. It was neatly placed on a column outside of a building located in the 4800 block of north Paulina. I took my keys out and tried the lock, and sure enough it was my lock.
