CHICAGO — Police are investigating two burglaries at high-end retailers along the Magnificent Mile overnight.

In a bold crime, two men broke through a wall to burglarize Saks Fifth Avenue, 700 North Michigan, shortly before 3 a.m. The store’s remote security team saw a man walking around the fifth floor with armloads of merchandise and notified Chicago police.

Cops eventually found a hole in the drywall on the fifth floor, according to a CPD report. The burglars escaped onto Michigan Avenue and got into a waiting vehicle moments before police arrived.

An officer who saw the surveillance video described the suspects as two young Hispanic men between 5’8″ and 6 feet tall. One wore black shorts, a black tank top, and a black mask. The other wore a gray tank top and gray shorts and had another shirt wrapped around his head.

The stuff will be fenced on the street for 5% of the Saks price—and they will still be overcharging.

I wonder how many businesses don’t have motion sensors and are ripe for someone simply punching through the sheetrock?

No arrests have been announced.

Nor will any be made. It's "reparations", don't you know?

I thought the “Miracle Mile” had pretty much closed down - like the once-thriving, high-end retail district in San Francisco (95 businesses closed due to rampant shoplifting and homeless living outside).

If not, won’t be long.

She doesn't go to malls, they bring the mall to her for her to shop handbags.
