Holy Fracking Cow-- Chicago's top bike thieves arrested

Actually not so exciting that they were arrested again, but that there's solid detective work, evidence, and publicity this time.

I can't say too much about these guys publicly, but this is significant. Too bad it took suburban police to reign them in, however temporarily.

 

Julie, I think it somewhat likely your coworker's bike is among those seized.  I know Chicago and UIC police are in the habit of checking CSBR as a matter of routine, but I don't know about the suburban police.

Angie, the victim, never got her bike back.

This is big by big. This is big squared. This is big to the nth power.
I am completely overjoyed.  Do you suppose the court proceedings on July 12 are open to the public?

Court is always (almost) open to the public. I wouldn't expect the July 12th date to be significant. I want to figure out a way to get some of my scrapbook to Wilmette police...

 

Oh, wow.
Great news!
This made my evening

Ugh-- don't make me look at that . . .


Did you see they listed his age as 31?



Do I see scum?  Gotta get some Tilex.
He'll be back to work in a couple of days at the most.
Bet.

I don't bet because I hope I'm wrong.
