A woman’s phone was snatched around 1:20 this morning on the corner of Clark and Addison, next to Wrigley Field. According the victim, she was standing on the corner when the offender approached, started a conversation, then grabbed her phone and ran.
The offender, described as a male, black, in his early 20’s, very thin, 5’8″ to 5’10” tall, wearing blue jeans and a “gray shirt with holograms on it” was last seen running northbound on Clark toward Waveland.
CWBChicago was created in 2013 by five residents of Wrigleyville and Boystown who had grown disheartened with inaccurate information that was being provided at local Community Policing (CAPS) meetings.
Our coverage area has expanded since then to cover Lincoln Park, River North, The Loop, Uptown, and other North Side Areas. But our mission remains unchanged: To provide original public safety reporting with better context and greater detail than mainstream media outlets.
