Garage damage that tenant denied

I got a call from my tenant today saying that the garage door is not closing completely.

I went by to inspect and found the top part of the garage door was damaged and would not let it completely close.

Tenant said her young daughter was home when she heard a sound outside, but did not come out to check.

My tenant seems confused as much as I am.

I don't think my tenant is lying to me, but I have no way of finding out who damaged the garage door.

This obviously is not a wear and tear, but clearly damaged.

Any suggestions on how to address this?

Would you bill this to your tenant?

Thanks in advnace.
