Tern GSD S00 LX
What happened
On August 19, 2024, at approximately 01:00 hours, a white male wearing a white cap, white shirt, black backpack, blue jeans, and white shoes used a screw to tamper with and jam the front/main entrance door. After gaining entry, the individual proceeded to the garage door entrance. Inside the garage, using a flashlight and his phone, he searched through and checked all storage cages and closets to see if there was anything valuable to steal. During this time, he moved our child's blue bike and stroller to access other items. The suspect then noticed our blue Tern Family electric bike, which was secured to a shelf. He moved several items in front of our car to clear his path and spent nearly 10 minutes breaking the lock. Once the lock was broken, he attempted to exit through the garage door, but when that failed, he exited with the bike through the same front/main entrance door he had initially used to enter, at approximately 01:15 hours. All of this was recorded by our apartment complex's video camera. The tools required to break the lock were carried in his backpack.
