Message from the Chicago Police Department:
At 5:30 am on December 10, 2011, there was a home invasion on the 1800 block of Cuyler. The offender kicked in the door & threatened the family with a gun. He is described as a black male in his 20’s, 6’2″, and weighing around 200 pounds. He was wearing a gray skull cap, gray down jacket and blue jeans.
Earlier this morning, there was another home invasion in the 900 block of Sheridan. That offender had the same description but was said to be wearing a black skull cap & gray sweatshirt.
In between these two incidents a person on the 1800 block of Berteau reported someone pounded on their door asking for money to fix a car. The homeowner did not answer or see who was at the door and the person left. It may or may not be connected.
If you heard or saw anything suspicious, or live in the area and have a home video surveillance system, please contact Area 3 Detectives or the CAPS office in the 19th District at 312-744-5574. If you need immediate assistance please call 911.
