Thieves target people doing yard work

[VIDEO] Worlee posted about this on his Concerned Citizens of Chatham FB page. This ABC7 story was e-mailed to us from Leslie Honore @ GCA about an elderly man assaulted while doing yardwork on his property. It makes sense what authorities and neighbors are doing. Let a neighbor know you're outside in the yard or don't be outside alone.

Ald. Sawyer got a quote in himself:
"It's devastating to me in such a nice neighborhood, and it's a wonderful neighborhood, great neighbors over here, that some punk would just want to go over there and shoot this man," said 6th Ward Alderman Roderick Sawyer.

Oh yeah Ms. Honore shared this link to insure more people come out to the GCA general meeting with guest speaker Chicago Police Superintendent Garry McCarthy next Saturday at Carter Temple located @ the corner of 79th & Wabash.

Please be careful out there!
