Incident Description:
The burglars entered Albany Park first floor apartment through a rear window off the back porch, having gotten into the locked back patio area, possibly by scaling the wooden fence between the apartment building and the neighbor's yard between 9:40 am and 5:30 pm on Friday, July 13. They took all electronics (3 laptops, 2 I-Pods and a Kobo e-reader), a maroon Golden Gloves title belt, some jewelry and two bicycles, including the one in this report and a 15" red Specialized Hardrock 21-speed mountain bike. They stole a gray Everlast gym bag to carry the stuff and appear to have left via the front door; front door to apartment was unlocked when I arrived home.
