Chicago crime: 4 Lincoln Park businesses hit by smash-and-grab burglar, including Old Pueblo Cantina and Sweet Mandy B's

Chicago police are currently investigating a series of smash-and-grab burglaries that took place in four Lincoln Park businesses. Three of the businesses were targeted within a short time frame.

The suspect is believed to have targeted three businesses on West Webster Avenue, including Old Pueblo Cantina and Sweet Mandy B’s Bakery, within about an hour and a half during the early hours of Friday morning.

The first break-in occurred around 3:35 a.m. in the 1200-block of West Webster Ave. The perpetrator used a rock to smash the front door to gain entry, although it remains unclear if any items were stolen during this incident. Less than thirty minutes later, around 4 a.m., another business in the 800-block of West Webster was broken into. The suspect gained access through the front door and reportedly stole an undisclosed amount of money.

The last burglary was just after 5 a.m. at a sushi restaurant in the 2200-block of North Lincoln Avenue, where the suspect threw a rock through a window. Police said it was not clear if any property was taken from that incident.

Police believe the same suspect broke into another business in the 1200-block of West Webster between Tuesday and Friday, also using a rock to smash the front door, get in, and steal an unknown amount of money.

No one is currently in custody. An investigation by Area Three detectives is ongoing.
