GLASS HOLES: Another Arrested For Halsted Window Smashing

Some people just don’t get it.

For the second time this week, Chicago police have made an arrest after someone busted a window on Halsted Street.

Police were called to Roscoe’s Tavern, 3356 N. Halsted, after a grown man kicked and shattered their front door in anger after closing time. The idiot, described as male, white, bald, and wearing a pink shirt, was taken into custody.

Moments after the man was driven away, his friends began pounding violently on Roscoe’s windows and police were called again. The friends were a little bit smarter than their cohort. They decided to leave before police arrived.

In an unrelated incident on Wednesday night, a man walked up to Spin nightclub, 3206 N. Halsted, broke a window, and then sauntered into another nearby bar. He, too, was arrested.
