Chicago police alert residents to burglaries targeting senior citizens
A team of thieves has come up with an elaborate new plan to target the elderly in northern Chicago this month, the Chicago Police Department said in a notice to residents on Tuesday.
Two to three suspects will approach a senior citizen and lure them out of their home by posing as Water Department employees, saying that there is damage to their home or garage.
Once the victim is outside, other burglars will enter the "home and take purses, jewelry and money."
Four residents have been stolen from since Dec. 15 in Chicago's 20th and 24th districts. One incident happened on Christmas Eve and another happened the day after Christmas.
The suspects were described as two to three White or Black males between the ages of 35 and 40.
