Two suspects involved in an armed robbery in Humboldt Park were arrested on Monday after a police chase that extended into the south suburbs.
The incident happened around 1:43 p.m. when a delivery driver was robbed by two men in the 800 block of North Spaulding Avenue, according to police. After taking the driver’s belongings, the suspects fled the scene in a stolen Infiniti.
During their escape, one of the suspects fired a gun at a residence near the intersection of East 74th Street and South Saint Lawrence Avenue. Fortunately, no one was hurt.
Chicago police, along with officers from Sauk Village, pursued the stolen vehicle as it sped through the south suburbs. The chase finally ended when Illinois State Police stopped the vehicle near Vollmer Road and Central Avenue in Matteson. Officers arrested both suspects and recovered two firearms from the vehicle.
As of now, the suspects are in custody, and charges are pending.
