There was also an empty suitcase nearby.
The police informed my son that groups of thieves troll campuses in the city with suitcases of tools, steal bikes and then travel out of state to sell these bikes at used bike stores. The impression was that the thieves are professionals.
Last week, while walking through Red Square, my son found another Master lock on the ground, twisted and damaged in the exact same manner as his lock."
