Incident Description: 
My bike was locked up with my boyfriends bike on our back porch inside an 8ft gated courtyard area. The bikes had been locked up there for 2 weeks. I last saw the bikes around 8pm on Friday August 17th when I came home for the evening. The bikes were locked up right next to our open bedroom window on the porch. In the middle of the night someone must have jumped the fence, cut the lock, took the bikes and walked out of the courtyard gate with them.
