Barefoot mugger robs man in Lakeview East

Two suspects -- one of them barefooted -- are wanted for a strong arm robbery in Chicago’s Lakeview East neighborhood, said police.

The incident, which was reported at 10:55 p.m., occurred on the 3400 block of North Elaine Place, near Elaine and Roscoe, said authorities. 

A male and a female offender attacked a man and stole his laptop, according to police dispatch reports.

The male suspect was idenitified as a 6’3”, 38-year-old, barefoot black man named Patrick Bovan.

Investigators got the suspect’s name from eyewitnesses who frequent the Halsted and Roscoe area.

Bovan’s accomplice was described as a black female with pink coloring in her hair. She was wearing a brown top and blue jeans shorts, said police.

During the last update, Bovan was seen running southbound on Halsted Street, presumably from Roscoe.

Chicago News Report found a Facebook page belonging to a Chicago man named Patrick Bovan. The profile appears to belong to man in his 30s.

Among Bovan’s Facebook friends is a woman wearing different colored wigs and weaves.

We can’t say for certain this is the same person who robbed the man on Elaine Place, but our hunches are seldom wrong.

  1. Barefoot? Did he just escape?

    Did his accomplice have a Wilma Flintstone bone in her hair too?

    How did they all know his name (first and last no less)? Is he a new Section 8 neighbor or the block "supplier"? Possibly he's the complimentary "house supplier" stationed outside of anyone of the establishments on any given night like a pillar of society.

    If they are all so compassionate and caring, could they not have thrown a charity auction to buy the guy a d*mn pair of shoes? They usually make out like a bandit on those.

    This place gets more bizarre by the minute. I've always been smart enough to keep it all at arms length but in Chicago, I just avoid it (and it's people) altogether.

  2. His Facebook photo is blurry. He needs to steal a better digital camera.

  3. CNR should take its hunches and jump in front of the 36 bus

  4. ^ He wouldn't even be scratched. That bus runs so slow with the average rider at about 380 lbs. Plus with the way too long delays at each stop with 90% of the (obese) people with a wheelchair or cane acting like they're near death, fare arguments, etc.......waiting for Alzheimers to kick in would be a quicker death than being hit by that bus.

    Hey! The 36 is $2.25 of pure all-sensory entertainment. Asshole.

  6. I'll second that. The CNR "journalist" would look great smeared on the front of the Broadway bus

  7. Hey ... If it wasn't for CNR, we wouldn't know ANY of this crap going down in Lakeview. It's guys like him that make it easier at CAPS meetings to say "and what this and what about that..."

    Anyone who is bashing is either a thug or a friend of the thug who committed the crime.

  8. Agreed. Even Take Back Boystown doesn't want to hear the truth. I know for a fact they've read comments off of CNR because they themselves don't even know what the F is going on in that neighborhood. They're too stupid and self-absorbed, or worried about some "cause" that has nothing to do with them other than it's a potential tax write-off. They know how to count their nightly revenue though. And they're too late to raise it back up. Hell, if I had 4 quarters, I'd go throw them in the lake before spending them on that strip.

    1. Have u even gone to the TBB. They are quite aware thanks to CNR U must be one of the thugs or tugettes running around causing trouble with an answer like this. Alderman doesn't care. Cops dont care.

  9. According the Jailbase website, a 37yo Patrick Bovan was just arrested a few weeks ago for drug offenses..

  10. ^I checked out that information... and thanks for sharing!

    Maybe the victim, or the police were wrong about the suspect's height. The guy at Jailbase is only 5'7".

  11. My instincts were right. But a barefoot drug dealer? Stealing laptops too? Wow, times are really hard in Chicago.

    Mr. Bovan was arrested last month for delivery of a controlled substance to a minor. No wonder how all of those people on Halsted were able to identify him. Time to find a new hook-up, crackheads.
