Mayor Lori Lightfoot also attended the crime summit and appeared to pin partial blame for the thefts on business owners not taking enough precautions against the crimes.
His high-end exotic car dealership was targeted by armed smash-and-grab looters on Dec. 11, who stole watches worth millions of dollars in a matter of seconds.
“It’s frightening. It’s really frightening,” Forsyth said. “They ran off down the alley next to the church here, and you can see them put the bikes in their car – and they just drove off.”
Five bikes total were stolen, coming out to about $15,000, and the cost to repair a broken window for the second time was $1,000.

Mayor Lori Lightfoot Seeks ATF’s Help as Chicago Homicides Surge
Amazing how Mayor Lesbo won’t take accountability for her foolish actions . What will she do when some smash and grabbers get a " fatal case of lead poison " from xtore owners.
I guess business owners can rightly justify not paying taxes seeing that Beatlejuice can’t provide adequate security in which such taxes is suppose to pay for.
Beetlejuice decided to throw the Chicago police under the bus time and time again , she put strict limitations on what the are NOW allowed to do . The POLICE are charged for ANY minor infraction of her new rules . Now she is asking for federal help so the rest of the Country has to pay for her stupidly .
Something tells me the Chickens are going to come home to roost before her term is done, because she has been an abysmal failure at being a mayor of a major city!
There is only so much of other people’s money that she can pass around before the mob turns on her, and I believe that is already starting to happen! Besides Philly being the murder capital of the US, Chicago leads that statistic by light years with the black on black crime that happens there on a daily basis!
That’s alright, it just needs to be blown all up! The terrorist will do the country a favor sooner or later when the country spirals out of control even further!
