OUTDOOR THEFT


Explanation:
As the following example shows, where the theft was from the garden of a house, this is the theft of objects left outside, not only in public places:

"AÇIKTAN HIRSIZLIK
Suçun Yeri Orduzu
Suçun Tarihi 03.06.2012
İntikal Tarihi 03.06.2012
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:
