Another Flyer
A flying pedestrian this time:
A 10-time convicted felon jumped from a third-floor window in a South Shore apartment building in an ill-fated attempt to escape Chicago police who arrived while he was allegedly burglarizing a woman’s home, prosecutors said.
Martel Brown, 37, is charged with burglary, and officials are seeking to revoke his parole following the August 5 incident in the 2000 block of East 68th Street.
According to a detention filing, CPD responded around 2:30 p.m. after a woman reported seeing a man with face tattoos kick in the front door of her apartment via her Ring camera feed. When officers arrived, they went to the back of the building and saw a ladder leaning against the building toward an open window, a CPD arrest report said. As officers tried to enter one of the units, they were told the burglar was escaping through a third-floor front window.
Brown then jumped from the third floor to the ground, prosecutors said. He suffered injuries to both legs and was taken to University of Chicago Medical Center, where he was reported to be in good condition. The woman who saw the burglary on her Ring camera arrived and provided the video to police, according to the CPD report.
Evidently he wasn't drinking his allotment of Red Bull, which we're told gives you wings.

Revoke his parole, lol He can rest up his ankles at the Hospital and when he feels better they will fit him with an ankle monitor.
Too bad he didn’t die
