OMG PD: Odd Crimes in Our Patch Region

Local police departments provided the following reports. In all incidents where an arrest occurred, a charge is merely an accusation and not evidence of guilt.

Eggs over again

Eggs were thrown Oct. 1 at a River Forest home. According to police, the same home was egged Sept. 10.

A bible was removed from the glove box and a phone charger and papers were taken from the center console of an unlocked car in Oak Park.

A Deerfield home was robbed of two diamond wedding bands, a gold necklace, diamond stud earrings and a silver necklace. Two used condoms were tied up and left near the door.

More than 10,000 people received a letter from “C.W. Marketing” offering $75 to test electronics that they could then keep. Turns out the letters were sent to fugitives by the Cook County Sheriff’s Central Warrants Unit, hence the “C.W.”

More than 100 people showed up. The fugitives were greeted by “smiling undercover officers” carrying electronics boxes and other undercover officers holding balloons. They were then led into a warehouse where their pictures were taken, identities confirmed and handcuffs slapped on, according to a news release.

Good fences make good ...

The fries are just that $%@*! good
