Chicago stores on alert with amid rash of crash-and-grab burglaries
CHICAGO -- The last few mornings, businesses across the city have woken up to their storefronts smashed open with cars and burglarized – and now, Chicago Police have put out an alert.The crime is called a ram-and-raid or a crash-and-grab. Stores are being targeted by burglars who use a car to break in.As CBS 2's Charlie De Mar reported Thursday night, crash-and-grabs happen at incredibly high speeds – and end in a violent crash.
'We spent $2,500 to put concrete barricades in front of store, and the alderman had a problem with that,' said Jacob, the owner of Boneyard.Jacob previously installed concrete barriers outside his sneaker store to prevent such crime because his store had been hit before. But without a permit, he was forced to remove the barriers from the sidewalk.'If they're going to help us, they could at least allow us to protect ourselves,' Jacob said.
