Brick weapon of choice in sidewalk robbery

10-May-13 – Chicago police are releasing few details about a robbery late last month on the sidewalk in front of House of Blues.

At about 12:40 early on a Saturday morning on April 27, two people inflicted a minor cut when they used a brick to rob a completely unidentified victim on North Dearborn Street. Three items were stolen from the victim but police would not describe the items in any way.

According to police officer Michael Cronin, “the criminal investigation is open and ongoing, and there has been no arrest.”
