Incident Description: 
I woke up on Sunday to find my garage door open and the pink Schwinn bike stolen. Still havne't figured out how they opened the garage door as we also double check at night that its closed. The bike is a small ladies frame with the rack on the back. I just had a new seat installed (the seat was stolen the week prior). The brakes aren't working, so that would be a dead give-away that its mine.
