On today’s date, you were in the Fenway neighborhood of the city, patrolling in the D103A. Earlier, at roll call, the duty supervisor informed the officers of the shift that there has been a lot of stolen bicycles between the area of 53 and 91 Kilmarnock Street in the last 3 weeks. At 1:50am, you observed a woman staring at a blue bicycle secured to a pole; the woman had the hood up on her down winter jacket even though it was mid-summer. You Observed that her hands had been in her pockets and she never even touched the bicycle or lock.

You approached the woman and asked for identification; she produced a Massachusetts ID that identified her as Anita Break (DOB 03/11/95) with an address of 123 Brookline Ave, Boston. You asked Break what she was doing looking at the bicycle and she said that she was just out for a walk.
