The theft took place during the night and it was when he was going to remove it from its location the next morning that he saw that it was not there, only the alarm cable cut to the ground. This neighbor explains that, as in many other adjacent streets, there was no video surveillance in his block. “It’s strange because even though anyone can enter the garage by walking behind another car, the door that gives access to the interior has been forced,” he admits.
