Burglarized again in GP

Well...just been a victim of a second break in 6 months, this Friday between 7 am and 5 pm.  This time they took absolutely everything.  They crowbarred my front gate, crowbarred the first floor window to get it open.  Did not open the doors since my alarm was on.  Took off with everything thru the window, including tv, audto equipment, bicycle, etc.  They even put my dog in my bedroom, shut the door and gave her treats.  I'm sure they will do it again.  This was at confederate/ormewood intersection.  I'm upgrading my security to window open detection, motion detector, inside camera, and outside horn alarm.  I also put brass security bolts thru the window top/bottom frame. I hope you take these suggestions and apply them to your residence. The police also said security doors are great because they can't be kicked in, since they swing out.  He also mentioned tracking devices for computers, tvs, etc. a la lojak.   If anyone sees a thief riding around on a yellow Trek 8000 mountain bike with purple lettering, let me know! We are in a war zone...
