Incident Description: 
My bike was locked in the interior courtyard of my apartment complex near May St and Grand Ave. It was locked to a metal fence, which was cut and bent to free the bike and lock. It looks like the fence was cut with bolt cutters - there is a ridge in the center of the cut, and then kicked out to bend it. All of this must have been done very quietly, as I was up working late only 10-15 ft from the place it was locked.
