(WBBM NEWSRADIO) – A North Side bank and an armored truck in the south suburbs were both hit by robbers this morning, prompting FBI investigations.
Authorities say a suspect walked into a Chase bank branch in the 6100 block of North Western Avenue and handed a teller a note demanding cash before spraying an unknown substance into the air.
The suspect ran off with an unknown amount of cash, and hazmat crews responded to the scene.
Also under investigation is the robbery of an armored truck in Homewood. Authorities say it happened outside a Jewel supermarket at 103rd and Kedzie. A Huntington Bank branch is located inside the store.
No arrests were made in either robbery, and the FBI is asking anyone with tips to contact them.
