Theft Description

Theft of bikes stored in locked shed. The bolt catch was levered off to gain access.

Both mountain bikes were hung on hooks on the wall, and locked together using a thick combination bike lock. Both front wheels were off and hung on separate hooks for ease of storage.

The hybrid was parked in the shed with combination lock around front wheel and frame.

It would appear the thieves exited the garden by way of the alley way and over the locked solid side gate (only way into back garden) as the rear mudguard dropped off my Giant 29er.

It is my belief that more that at least two people would have been required to man handle the two mountain bikes over the wooden gate and no signs of any scratching or marking of the wood on the top of the gate.
