CHICAGO (WBBM NEWSRADIO) — Chicago police are on the hunt for the person who broke into the North Side's Broadway United Methodist Church early Wednesday morning.
Police said the suspect broke into the Broadway United Methodist Church, located on Broadway and Buckingham Place, just before 5 a.m.
After breaking the front glass door, the suspect then stole items from an office before driving away in an orange SUV.
Alka Lyall, a pastor at the church, told the Sun-Times she "felt sad not only for the damage that we're experiencing, but also for the person feeling so under-resourced that they have to resort to this level."
"It's sad that something like this happens but it happens all the time," Lyall told the Chicago Sun-Times.
Police said detectives are investigating, and no one is in custody.
