Chicago police are seeking two suspects who were captured on surveillance footage early Monday appearing to break into a Sunglass Hut store in Chicago.
The apparent looting was recorded between 2 and 4:10 a.m. at 900 N. Michigan Ave., a multistory city mall, police said.
Video released to the public showed the first suspect appearing to smash through the glass entrance with a hammer just before 2:30 a.m. Wearing a coronavirus face mask, he walked up and down the front aisle, grabbing sunglasses off the shelf and putting them into a blue bag.
A second suspect was seen entering the store after 4 a.m. wearing casual attire and no mask. Surveillance footage showed him grabbing a handful of boxes from drawers before he escaped.
