CWB: Here are a few incidents reported to police in Lakeview and nearby Uptown this weekend:
An Uptown man’s pooch took a bite out of crime while being taken for a walk in the 900 block of West Montrose on Saturday evening.
The dog was walking with her owner when a mugger approached, pushed the dog’s owner, and went through the man’s pockets around 10:30 p.m., police said. The offender fled with the victim’s wallet and phone— MORE
He’s walking around Chicongo at night with his wallet? Now that’s a special kind of stupid.
Red shirt , black guy? They got him easy.
“Police said the offender—a black male in a red shirt—jumped into a white vehicle that was last seen heading east on Montrose. A search of local hospitals for dog bite victims failed to turn up any suspects.”
If you are looking for an injured animal wouldn’t you search the veterinary hospitals?
My dog won’t let a stranger anywhere near me unless I tell him it’s okay, and he’s pretty scary looking even when he’s not growling. I took him with me to PetSmart a few weeks ago, and a guy behind me in line said he liked my dog. I told him just don’t lean toward me, and the guy said “I wasn’t planning on it.” That mugger would have had his throat torn out.
Whats black and brown and looks real good on a hood rat?
I hope the pup got a steak-sized chunk out of that thug, at least.
