Incident Description: 
Bike was one of three bikes stolen (others include women's blue schwinn roadbike with orange tape and a newer men's brown schwinn) from the locked garage. The overhead door was likely pried open. The perps also stole some power tools (sander, drill, and jigsaw). We think they must have had a truck to get away with all the stuff without being noticed and wouldn't be surprised if it was someone in the neighborhood. There is no reason for someone to target our place over any of the others on the block unless they had already seen what we had inside it (which was basically everything they took).
