Fifteen robberies in four hours? During the middle of the day? Yep. That’s what happened today. And why not? It’s Chicago, and nobody in a position of authority or responsibility seems inclined to do much about it.

Police did track down a car that was used in most, if not all, of Tuesday’s robberies.

The robberies came in two waves, with the first starting around 11:15 p.m. outside a bank in the 4500 block of West North Avenue.

In a scenario that would unfold more than a dozen more times within a few hours, men jumped out of a car to rob the victim at gunpoint. They escaped in a Kia that was stolen from the 1500 block of West Haddon in Noble Square, according to a Chicago police report.

A second car, a blue or black sedan, also stolen, carried another group of robbers around the area. Sometimes, the vehicles traveled together, according to a law enforcement source.

Between 11:30 and about noontime, robberies involving the silver SUV were reported in the 1800 block of North Kildare, the 2500 block of North Maplewood, the 2500 block of West Homer, the 2500 block of North St. Louis, and near Talman and Maypole.

Among other robberies reported during the first spree:

At about 11:45 a.m., the black sedan pulled onto the 1500 block of North Maplewood. The driver threatened a man with a gun and asked for money. When the victim didn’t have any cash, the robber took his toolbag, according to a CPD report.

About five minutes later, the car pulled onto the 2500 block of North Campbell. A man they tried to rob on the block had nothing of value, so they pistol-whipped him and pulled off a successful robbery in the 2400 block of West Huron.

Likely a typo based on the rest of the story.

The way this is going, at some point Chicagoans will start yearning for the law-and-order days of Lori Lightfoot.

(Just kidding. Maybe.)

Chicago criminals are just trying to keep up with Houston criminals.

With such a precise description of the perpetrators, the police should have no difficulty nabbing them!

The police immediately blanketed the neighborhood with BOLO posters.

Hey Chicago, maybe your cops aren’t really in to stopping robberies and stuff since you have zero respect for the jobs they do? You prove it every time you vote to keep yourselves ruled by this insanity.

No you’re right. This know-nothing, incompetent and stupid marxist is even worse. People like him are living in a fantasy that they’re still a slave somehow and therefore they need to hate hate hate and kill kill kill whitey. They can barely hide it but it pops up in everything they say and do. This keeps them from even considering black on black crime as a pressing factor. They’re more concerned with making whitey pay with everything. People like him are too far gone, they’ll never get over the brainwashing they learned from our ‘hallowed halls’.

At least they weren’t those ‘teens’ again. Those cats have committed way more than their share of the crimes lately.

Mayor BJ could spin this as "proof my policies are working--there were 15 daytime robberies and no one was shot or killed."

But were they better behaved than Philadelphia? Did Chicago have any lootings?

As difficult as it is to believe, Brandon Johnson has done the impossible and unthinkable. He has made Lori Lightfoot look like a better mayor.
