Early Friday morning, police were looking for an alleged thief who apparently forced his way into a Boystown, Lakeview neighborhood home.
At 5:58 a.m., someone called 911 from the 800 block of West Roscoe Street, near Halsted and Roscoe.
According to police dispatch, the 911 operator who took the call, overheard the complainant struggling with the offender.
The suspect was described as male Hispanic with a dark complexion, about 5’8”, with a slim build.
The offender was wearing a black leather coat with a red hooded sweatshirt underneath and black pants.
Investigators said the intruder, whom the victim knew by name, stole a laptop computer from the victim’s garden apartment.
The suspect was last seen going southbound on Halsted from Roscoe.

The supposed "gay" area is now hilarious. I swear. And we want respect amongst the masses? I recently dismissed Halsted Street - forever.
ReplyDelete5'8" "with a slim build". Was the victim 5'5" without a spine? Or drunk as hell from being overserved from an establishment around the corner for the sake of a buck?
The "victim knew the intruder by name".
Garden apartment? = basement anywhere else in the world. My Mother even noticed that on HGTV. A friend rented one and had to replace his mattress because it got peed on through a window in a "garden apartment".
I'm sorry this happened but also sorry that gays have exploited each other to this level.....for a $.
Rough trade.
ReplyDeleteVery rough. I'm sorry for the gays that, in this day and age, feel they have to be exploited like this. Quite franklly, based on my observations......they were ostracized from wherever they came from. My neighbor downstairs from Cary, IL is a prime example. A cop ran him out. The career bartenders.......it's really sad. The fight for "equality" is in vain and shamed on this "strip"....in Chicago.
ReplyDeleteThis is a hook-up gone wrong. Enough of these endless and pathetic stories about the "boys" on Halsted Street. You reap what you sow.
