Not official report. AI-generated from public dispatch audio. Always verify with official sources.

Police receive reports of a man in black clothing with a backpack trying to break into a vacant house near South Oglesby Avenue in Chicago. Callers say he walks to the street to see if anyone is watching, then returns up the side driveway toward the house. Officers respond to the area and are given an Illinois license plate number linked to the incident. A later update says the man, now described as wearing a blue jacket, leaves the home and is last seen walking north from the location. Officers arrive and detain one person believed to be involved. Traffic control previously requested at the Museum of Science and Industry is canceled, and a radio slowdown is issued for the burglary call once a person is in custody.
