Boys' Mongoose Rumble BMX

Boys' Mongoose Rumble BMX

What happened

Note that this is a picture of the same model in a different color; ours is black with blue trim. The bike was cable-locked to the inside of our metal-fence in our front yard. The yard gate locks, so the thieves had to have jumped/climbed the fence, cut the cable, lifted the bike out, and climbed back out. This happened, for sure, at night.

Condition
The fifth bicycle we've had stolen in the last 16 months, and the second in the last month. This was my 9-year-old son's bike, and it has no distinguishing features mostly because it was the brand-new replacement for the last one that got stolen.
