Former Bears coach Mike Ditka robbed May 4, 2005 — Chicago police are looking for the person who stole a big chunk of money from former Bears coach Mike Ditka.

Police say someone took $30,000 in cash from a black bag inside Ditka's condo in the city.

He and his wife had been out of town since November. They returned home Monday to find that the money was gone.

Why do you keep $30G in a urban area?

Why would anyone keep $30,000 cash ANYWHERE? :)

Rich folk keep oodles of cash in the house all the time
My friends uncle kept over 130,000 in a sock drawer for crying out loud
they found it when he passed away suddenly
some people dont trust banks
others just like to have cash floating about
no big deal
sucks he got burgled though

That was his payoff from Lavitra. It's the little capsules at the bottom of the bag he's more upset about.

it was probably the chicago police that stole it under the asset forfeiture laws since no one that has thirty k in cash can possible come buy it without selling drugs
