"AÇIKTAN HIRSIZLIK

Müşteki C M: B oğlu 1979 doğumlu,
Şüpheli F.M.
Olayın Özeti Müşteki ifadesinde; ikametin bahçesinde oturduğu esnada 5 dakika bahçenin arka kısmına geçtiğini, tekrar ön tarafına geldiğinde bahçede camın kenarına koymuş olduğu cep telefonunun yerinde olmadığını fark ettiğini, şikâyetçi olduğunu beyan etmiş olup tahkikata başlanılmıştır."
I thus think that 'outdoor theft' is the best equivalent. See, for example:
