A hidden Apple AirTag led police to the two men who robbed over $1 million from a Brink's armored truck Tuesday morning in Homewood.
Around 9:25 a.m., two armored truck guards parked outside a Jewel-Osco at 3153 183rd Street to make a pick-up from a bank inside, according to court documents.

They also took 10 deposit bags containing approximately $50,000 each, according to officials.SUBSCRIBE TO FOX 32 ON YOUTUBELaw enforcement tracked the AirTag to 12460 S. Justine St. in Calumet Park.
