Incident Description:
Burglars entered Albany Park apartment through rear window off back porch, which they may have accessed by scaling wooden fence between apartment building back patio and the neighbor's yard, between 9:40 am and 5:30pm. The thieves took all electronics (3 laptops, 2 I-Pods, and a Kobo e-reader), some jewelry, a maroon Chicago Golden Gloves title belt, and another bike (a dark blue Specialized Hardrock SS) in addition to the one in this report. The burglars also took a gray Everlast gym bag, presumably to carry the stuff, and it seems as though they left via the front door. Front door to apartment was unlocked when I arrive home and the rear window was open but not enough to allow a human to exit.
