2020 REI Co-op Fat Bike, Model DRT 4.1

What happened

My bike was on my car bike rack. I was parked in a crowded parking lot in front of a strip mall. I forgot that my bike was on my rack, unlocked, since I was driving straight home from getting it tuned up. I spontaneously decided to make a quick stop at a store. I was inside the store for 15 minutes and when I came out my bike was gone and some of the straps of my bike rack were missing (cut off?). I called the police immediately.
