In hindsight, It might not have been the best idea for a disguise.
On Wednesday, April 10 around 1:30 a.m. the burglary alarm of a restaurant in the 2100 block of W. 95th St. went off, according to Chicago Police News Affairs Officer Daniel O'Brien.
Officers were on patrol in the area and heard the alarm and saw that the front glass door of the restaurant was damaged, O'Brien said. They secured the back of the building and went back around to find a man near the door.
