Radio Shack Robbery In Wisconsin: Last Suspects Identified As Oswego and Aurora Residents

And yes, RadioShack is still in business

It may be surprising that RadioShack is still in business, especially since the company just filed for bankruptcy for the second time in just over two years.

It's probably more surprising that eight men and women from the Aurora/Oswego area traveled 120 miles to allegedly rob a RadioShack in Monroe, Wisconsin on Valentine's Day.

Police in Wisconsin were able to arrest five suspects after a nearly 40-mile vehicle chase, but three individuals fled into farm fields during the course of the pursuit.
