Summary
Early Tuesday morning in Chicago’s Pilsen neighborhood, thieves attempted a high-stakes smash-and-grab at a Shell gas station—hitting the mini-mart three times with a stolen SUV, only to abandon the vehicle and flee empty-handed after realizing their plan was a disaster. The store’s front door was shattered, the SUV was totaled, and despite the chaos, nothing was stolen and no one was hurt. A wild, botched crime that proves sometimes, the fastest way to fail is trying to force your way in. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
