Incident Description:
UPLOADED IMAGE IS NOT THE ACTUAL STOLEN BICYCLE. It's an image I found online of the same model
Bike isn't used regularly; last time it was definitely seen was 7 August 2011. Stolen from garage where it was hanging from rafters; nothing else is missing, including easy-to-carry tools, so I suspect the thief is a child. Will be on the lookout for the bike in River Park, which is across the street from our home.
