Today’s Good News
Thanks
to a neighbor’s watchful eye, two men who tried to break into a Southside home
were unsuccessful. The neighbor called Second
Precinct officers who responded in less than a minute. As officers pulled
up to the residence, they spotted two men leaving the home. Though the pair
ran, they were quickly caught by Second Precinct officers and detectives as
well as Gang Unit detectives. Both
men have been since been charged with burglary. Good teamwork!
