As someone that worked in law enforcement for over 28 years. The Cops that talked to you were speaking from experience. If they (robbers) were professionals, they wore gloves, if they were amateurs, their fingerprints would not, in all probability, be in the system

You don’t know unless you check though. I got the impression that it was too much trouble.

You’re kidding, right? People that break into garages to steal bicycles are probably dumb enough not to wear gloves and have probably spent most of their lives going through the system.
Petty theft like that is either kids or druggies.

That sounds more like dopers and their prints would more than likely be in AFIS. I see the same people come in and out year after year. There are simply too many burglaries and too few cops to properly investigate each and every one.
