CHICAGO (WLS) -- Chicago police are investigating a burglary in the city's Ukrainian Village neighborhood in which the suspects and their vehicles were caught by a surveillance camera.

Police said one man went to a home in the 1000-block of North Wood Street, near West Augusta Boulevard, Thursday and asked to see an apartment that was for rent.

While the 73-year-old landlord took him upstairs to see the unit, another man broke into her home. No one was injured.

Police said the suspects took off in a grey SUV. Both the men and their vehicle were captured by a neighbor's security camera.

The investigation is ongoing.
