Burglars target NW Side eateries

Break-ins were reported at at least three Northwest Side restaurants early Tuesday, June 3, according to Chicago police.

Two men, described only as Black and wearing masks and dark clothing, were seen on surveillance footage burglarizing the restaurant, police said. A silver car was in the parking at the time of the incident, and entry to the restaurant was gained by breaking a door.
