Stealing the fork is rather unusual. Most thieves go for the easy to remove
parts like wheels & seats. To steal the fork, the thief would need a decent
sized tool kit and the know-how to remove the fork (disconnect the brakes,
disassemble the headset, etc.).
It's sort of like somebody popping the valve cover off a car to steal the 10mm
nuts used to adjust the valves.
Amazing.

Actually, a temporary knee injury, and then the weather precluded any
bike riding as of late.
And then I moved my moutain bike (daily driver, until the knee probs),
from the alley to the car port, as per my father's suggestion that it
would be wise to keep it out of the rain, and two days later, the front
fork was stolen.
This is cruelty to humans.

You are riding your bike to work? Right? No
pollution, no cruelty.
