A frantic search ensued Wednesday night after three kids went missing when the car they were riding in was stolen.
The Truth Behind The Tow: 'Chicago Stole My Car That Night'
As CBS 2’s Jermont Terry reported, the three children – all younger than the age of 9 – were inside a gray Chevrolet Equinox when thieves tried to order the driver out of the car in the 800 block of West Superior Street. The thief got into of the sport-utility vehicle – which police said was double parked and running with the three children in the back seat.
It is not clear how long the thief drove the kids around, or whether or not he told the kids to get out of the car.CBS 2’s Terry talked with the children’s grandfather, who arrived in River West frantically trying to find his grandchildren.“My daughter has her daughter with her kids on a track, so that’s how we found out where the car was – and all of a sudden, the car, they turned off the tracker on the phone and they found them,” said the grandfather, Carlos Serrano.
The car was found abandoned miles away in the 3100 block of South Homan Avenue. The suspect – a man standing 5 feet 10 inches tall, weighing 165 pounds, and wearing all black – remained on the loose Wednesday night.
