Incident Description:
Went into my garage and noticed my bike was missing. Best guess was that either the garage door was left open and someone noticed my bike in the back of the garage which wasn't locked or some jimmied the door into the garage because the latch doesn't always catch on the lock and the thief was able to pull the door open without causing physical damage.
