Incident Description

Which type of area was your bike stolen from?: 
Garage or enclosed parking area.
How long was the bike locked in this location?: 
It is in our private garage that we shared with our neighbor. No locks were broken so our neighbor likely (this has happened multiple times before) left the garage door open when they drove out and someone grabbed the bike
Incident Description: 
Not sure when exactly it was stolen. We do not use the garage often but our neighbors drive in and out with their cars frequently. There was a month in between the last time we saw the bike and when we realized it was stolen. Our neighbor has left the garage door open when driving out and that was likely what happened given that no door or locks were broken.
