At least seven businesses were targeted last month, police said. Thieves stole construction equipment, vehicles, trailers and tools from those businesses.
In each burglary, two male suspects broke into private lots by cutting through locks or surrounding fencing, police said. The suspects drove a maroon pick-up truck in each case. In some cases, they loaded stolen property onto a trailer attached to the truck.
No one is in custody at this time. Police continue to investigate.
Police asked anyone with information about the recent crimes to contact Area 5 detectives at (312) 746-7394.
