2012 Trek Madone 4.5
What happened
Thief accessed garage at house from alley in the early morning--walked in and grabbed the bike and walked out in 15 seconds. Have video surveillance from security camera on garage and a nearby neighbor's camera, but male was wearing a hoodie and mask--cannot tell race or any distinguishing features. Thin male; younger. May have been on a different bike and ditched that nearby to steal this one. Had Topeak seat bag, rear red light, front light, mini pump, and bottle cage as accessories. Seat bag--which had an Apple air tag inside--was recovered that morning approximately a mile north in the middle of an alley. Bag still had a CO pump and tire repair kit inside (Two spare CO cartridges were missing along with some miscellaneous things in bag. New inner tube was cut up into several pieces and discarded nearby in alley. Air tag was found about 15 feet away. [*photo included is not the actual stolen bike, but it matches the make/model/year/and paint design of the bike.]
