Gitane Grand Sport Deluxe 10 speed

What happened

Sometime late Monday June 9 or early Tuesday June 10 someone got into our gated parking area, cut my bike lock, and took my bike. The gate is very high so I have no idea how one would get into the area let alone get a bicycle over it. Our parking faces an alley. The bike was in a back corner behind my husbands vehicle so I assume it was taken by someone who frequently travels down the alley and had an eye on my bike. This bike was my mother in laws wedding gift 40 years ago so it has a lot of sentimental value and I just want to see it back safe!
