| Woods. Banned from “youth” shelter. |
“I’m banned from the Center on Halsted and now The Crib [youth shelter in Boystown] and now here! This is bogus.”
That’s what a very mature-looking 25-year-old Marquise L. Woods told police who approached him after Inter-American Magnet School administrators reported seeing him playing video games on the school steps with one hand down his pants.
Woods, who listed The Crib as his home address during arrest processing, was charged with trespassing at the school, 851 W. Waveland.
Extra Atonement, Please

| Leventopoulos |
Roberto Leventopoulos, 26, really, really wanted to go to Yom Kippur services. But he didn’t have a ticket.
After being warned numerous times to leave the Anshe Emet Synagogue unless he had a ticket, Leventopoulos allegedly returned the next day and “created a disturbance while attempting to gain entry” to services again.
Leventopoulos, of the Irving Park neighborhood, is charged with trespassing.

| Bobbitt |
Uptown resident Charles E. Bobbitt, 49, is charged with burglary and theft after police say they connected him with two incidents in our neighborhood.
In one case, Bobbitt allegedly tried to sell a stolen bike to a pawn shop in the 3100 block of N Ashland and then fled when employees questioned him about the bike’s stolen status. Records show the bike had been taken from the 1000 block of W. School.
In the burglary incident, Bobbitt is accused of cutting a lock off of a bike in the 400 block of Belmont and pedaling away. The entire episode was caught on camera, according to detectives.
When detectives played the surveillance footage for Bobbitt, they noted that Bobbitt was wearing the exact same outfit as the man who stole the bike: A royal blue Mobile gas station shirt; a blue LL Bean jacket that says “Carval Investors” on the right chest; and black and lime green tennis shoes with lime green laces. Bobbitt then identified himself as the person who was caught on video, cops say.
More “SADness”

| Street |
Two days after officers arrested three teenagers who were allegedly trying to collect funds for a fake charity called “SO SAD” from Lincoln Park businesses, a 23-year-old woman was arrested for doing essentially the same thing along the Southport corridor.
Timeko Street was charged with one count of soliciting for charity without a permit during the Lakeview Taco Fest. Her flyers called the charity “SOS.” At the time of her arrest, Street was in possession of $107 cash, police said.
