It seems even the stars of the NHL are not immune to the ravages of the Windy City crime wave.
According to the Chicago Sun-Times, two anonymous gamers had their luxury vehicles stolen at gunpoint from a valet at one of the city’s upscale restaurants last week.
CWBChicago reports that a valet at the Little Goat restaurant in the West Loop neighborhood was broken into by two gunmen last Wednesday. The valet who worked at the booth told cops he was confronted by two men – one holding a gun – who asked him to open the key box.
The criminals then fled in a Porsche Panamera and a Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk belonging to the Blackhawks players. CCTV has captured the heist.
In the past three weeks, at least four valet drivers have been targeted as the city’s carjacking epidemic spirals out of control. The Sun-Times reports that car hijackings increased 105% in 2020 compared to 2019, with another 43.5% increase last September.
It comes as Chicago re-won the title from Murder City USA in 2021 with 797 murders, the highest number in 25 years.
The cops recovered the two luxury vehicles, CWBChicago said.
