Just watched two people steal a bike on Valencia

At 6:10p tonight I saw two men angle grinding a bike lock that was locking a white Canondale bike to the bike rack on Valencia St. (between 18th and 17th). I asked the person grinding "did you forget your key?" knowing full well he was stealing it. He said "ya I forgot it." I immediately started calling 911 but cause I have T-mobile my call didn't go through (their coverage sucks ass).

10 seconds later they had the lock cut and they got away.

I wish I had done more. I was making excuses in my head at the time that I didn't want to make a scene in front of my girlfriend (who was with me), but I feel really bad about it now. From the time I saw them to the time they were gone was prob about 30 seconds total.

I was able to call 911 using my gf's phone right after and give the police a description of the two people and where it was, but realistically that "investigation" will be immediately closed.

If you had your bike stolen tonight, I'm sorry.
