Hey guys, Thanks for all the positive comments and suggestions. There were 4 garages broken into that night. At another house they tried to steal a full chest freezer of meat. Other items taken - lawn/power tools. I went to 21 junk yards in the Chicago area today and gave them a flyer with pictures, contact info etc... The City of Chgo has a long standing rule that Scrap Yards cannot buy kegs - this helps curb keg theft at bars. None the less, they said they'd keep an eye out for the whole system or parts turning up on the back of a truck.
A neighbor who's garage was entered had a motion triggered camera that was able to record video and audio for 2 minutes before these crooks realized there was a camera and ran off. Those clips have been forwarded to the detectives that are tying all of the break-in's together.
Just so it's out there contact:
Det. Demetrios Kolliopoulos #20238
Chicago Police Department Area North Detective Bureau

or myself if anything relevant comes to mind.
Here is a clip from my neighbors Garage Video.
