Crime is Still Down
A crash-and-grab burglary crew fleeing from a break-in at the Louis Vuitton store slammed into another vehicle on the Mag Mile, killing its driver, police said. CPD has also revealed that seven burglars are in custody, including five who were in the vehicle that crashed.
It all started around 4:53 a.m. Thursday when the crew used a pickup truck to ram through the Louis Vuitton storefront at 919 North Michigan Avenue. Witnesses told police that at least six cars pulled up, and offenders scooped up merchandise from the compromised store. Officers arriving moments later saw the getaway vehicles leaving the scene.
One of those getaway cars, a Kia Stinger, didn’t make it far. Police say the Kia sped south on Michigan Avenue and plowed into an eastbound Honda CR-V at Ohio Street. The Honda’s driver, an unidentified man believed to be in his 40s, was rushed to Northwestern Hospital, where he was pronounced dead, according to CPD. Five people from the Kia were also hospitalized with serious but non-life-threatening injuries. All are now in police custody. Stolen merchandise was recovered from the Kia.
And now we get to see if O'Neill Burke is an actual States Attorney or just another Machine tool. She's been better than the last few who occupied that office, but....what have you done for the voters lately?
A death in the commission of a felony used to mean that EVERYONE involved got charged with Felony Murder. This is an especially egregious crime, representative of a massive breakdown of law and order, and O'Neill Burke was recently quoted as in favor of full prosecution of felony theft offenses.
What's it going to be?

Felony murder was ruled u constitutional by the Illinois Supreme Court. Her hands are tied when it comes to charging the occupants in the car.
Nice thought, but it's manslaughter, and probably only the driver.
national guard still not needed?
22 years on the job and crime has never gone up ! It’s always been down ! Ugh we need another raise !!!
She better step up!!
The Safe T Act took care of being able to charge everyone with murder. The driver may get reckless homicide or manslaughter, nothing he won't be able to get parole in 15years for though.
Rumor has it, that all vehicles involved in this heist were stolen. And it was a lot more than the three vehicles mentioned.
The crew looked like 15 or more leaving the store. So, only half has been wrangled. And be sure not even half of the merchandise was recovered. Doubt any of it is worth ten cents anyway. It's all garbage can fodder.
Will those arrested sing? Nope, they'll dummy up.
Will refrain from saying more.
The chillins will never stop as long as the narrative continues that the poleeces are the problem
It is the moment of truth. Either Burke is with the good residents of Chicago and charges ALL with murder, or she is against us and waffles.
Will the welfare and safety of the public finally matter again?
It was only a matter of time before they killed someone. Shame that's what it takes to turn the tide. You're supposed to prevent deaths, not wait for them to happen.
A daily review, event by event, akin to HeyJackass with specifics, focused upon actions, not pontifications, like the mlb standings, will provide guidances of the performances of the key actors' activities.
This city is totally gone. This is the second day time smash and grab downtown within a week or so. Now , some poor guy is dead because the justice system in Illinois has allowed total lawlessness by passing the Safe T Act and handcuffing the police. This is what chaos looks like. Wait til this weekend .
They were only Christmas shopping....ghetto style! For those that like throwing statistics around, what was a racial makeup of that incident?!
They need to be shot.
15 "teens" are the racial makeup....
Am not judging right now and gonna wait and see what happens next.
I had my eye on one particular pretty handbag. I hope they didn't get that one.
Now, kees me you fool!!!!
You need to hit up Conehead for some Xanax. Just relax a little bit, take a deep breath, and enjoy the nice weather this weekend. Everything is going to be okay.
The ball is in Burk's court. Is she a clone of Kimmy or is she a prosecutor for Cook County. Only she can prove herself worthy of our trust.
See above, Burke cannot, her hands are now tied by IL state law.
Damn!! Those Stingers are a lot of fun to drive. Faster than the Subaru WRX through the quarter-mile.....
Now now as Jasmine Crockett will tell you "they" steal cause they are hungry and need diapers and food. LoL
The Democrat party is not Christian or Jewish or honest or loving or for law and order or for border control or for justice for all especially the black felons or equal justice for all political groups or for American principals or for the constitution or free speech or the history of the greatest country on earth, the USA.
ok, it was actually the safety act but thanks for the info
But the citizens enjoy filming them so much, what will they do now?
Oh, they had to be white, since white supremacy is the nation's biggest threat.
this insane robbery, the brinks shootout at state and Madison and the daytime sledgehammer robbery at Rolex should be enough ammunition to bring in the military to patrol out streets
Let’s remember to not demonize them.
You should read some of the above comments instead of spewing your ignorance of the law. Her hands are tied.
They gave us a ribbon over a decade ago...dont get greedy.
Im glad crime is still down. I can still squeeze a 1 hour lunch in two or three days a week....
City just told cfd they have no money for retro , sorry . Hey BJ. Go fuck yourself and pay them !!!
OT: Trump says he's sending the National Guard to Memphis, though he 'would have preferred' Chicago
What stopped him?
Smash n grab will increase prior to national guard arriving . Gotta getterdone befo new polices come
That's not what I'm seeing - felony murder is in a statute, and the dreaded SAFE-T Act updated it to provide that the death had to be caused by one of the criminal co-conspirators. A small change that leaves most felony murder charges possible. And it's definitely still possible here.
Prediction: Burke splits the baby, and goes felony murder on everyone in the Kia Stinger that caused the wreck. But people in other cars won't get hit. Which maybe makes sense.
the bosses said to make this a lost and found case report
Gov FatAss should resign after the comments he made about Charlie Kirk!
How can anyone still support the bloated mess?
Shooting incident with ICE. You guys will be busy now....
ICE operations here....
She has been as good as she can be so far. I was wrong, I thought she would be terrible from day one.
We need to bring back the death penalty. And I mean specifically that if a gang of robbers accidentally kill a bystander, they should all be executed.
Needs gov to ask
He was trolling fat fuck JB and Conehead. It’s one of the things he excels at. Got in their heads bigtime and made them scramble. For nothing. The POTUS is a master chess player and thinks several steps ahead. Now he sits back and laughs as the misguided youths ramp up and double down on their lawlessness because “they ain’t finna send da army guys to stop us”.
Pritzker and Brandon are gloating over this. Why wouldn’t they? Wait for the weekend, mexicans will be dancing in the streets. Saw several today again, with the mexican flags flying out of the car windows, sunroofs…
Gov Pigster today - “the people of Illinois deserve a full, factual accounting of what’s happened today to ensure transparency and accountability." Can we have a factual accounting of the billions of our tax dollars (to the penny) that Pigsker spent on illegal aliens.
None of the kids had homework that night. The system will blame the over paid teachers for not educating the youths.
Round up all sub human felons, they surely don't belong in civil society.
Not in this city
Hit occupants of ALL cars w/ Felony Murder; offer occupants of non-Stinger cars a plea down if they name names of those who escaped (if they do, FM charge downgraded). Kia occupants all go down on a murder rap no matter what though.
