Uptown neighborhood dry cleaners robbed, thief escapes in taxicab

A Sheridan Park, Uptown neighborhood business was robbed Saturday, said police.

The strong arm robbery happened around 5:17 p.m. at B&B Cleaners, 4638 North Clark Street, near Clark and Leland.

A male black offender entered the store, assaulted a woman, and stole money from the cash register, said police.

The brazen thief, who has a very dark complexion, was wearing a black spring jacket, long pants, and was carrying a backpack.

After the robbery, the suspect fled westbound from the cleaners… then southbound through the Walgreens parking lot at 1500 West Wilson Avenue.

At some point, the robber must have made his way back to Clark Street, because according to investigators, witnesses saw him jump into a taxicab at Clark and Sunnyside.

The cab was last seen going southbound on Clark, then eastbound on Montrose.

  1. Everyone write your reps/ senators/ and the republicans tell them the horrors of subsidised housing. Tell them of the failure of subsidised housing, how the people were supposed to assimilate into the rea but instead they turned it into the area they left. Tell them u want the HUD budget cut so that there is only enough for seniors,vets and people with mental and physical disabilities. This will force the CHA to reduce the number of vouchers and sell their buildings to private companies. The baby mamas who are the beneficiaries of subsidised housing have criminal relatives and boyfriends that target the area and they also live with them.
    Section 8 and subsidised housing is funded federally not through the city(for those who didn't know). SO COMPLAINING TO THE CITY IS A WASTE OF TIME.

    Everytime there is a budget battle contact them and tell them to cut the HUD BUDGET.

    Support Paul Ryan's budget to cut food stamps and other welfare programs that promotes over breeding by lowincome, low intelligence uneducated men and women who produce the spawn who do all the wyldings and crime.
