CHICAGO - Chicago police are warning businesses on the Northwest Side about a series of recent break-ins where burglars made off with cash and alcohol.

In each incident, four suspects wearing black face masks and dark clothing use a large rock to smash the front glass door of the business before stealing cash and bottles of alcohol, according to a CPD business alert.

They then flee the scene in a dark-colored SUV.
