A 14-year-old Flossmoor resident has admitted to going on an auto burglary spree in his neighborhood, police said.
A 14-year-old Flossmoor resident has admitted to burglarizing some 20 cars in his neighborhood and the surrounding area, police said. The teen was taken into custody Sunday by Flossmoor police after a quick response to a weekend call of suspicious activity and thanks to ongoing police work, according to Deputy Chief Michael Pulec. The teen apparently did not smash car windows in any of the incidents. Instead, he typically entered vehicles left parked and unlocked in residential driveways, Pulec said. When the teen was caught, stolen property was found on his person and was quickly identified, Pulec said. The teen then cooperated with police and confessed to numerous burglaries in the Heather Hill area and the west side of town—crimes that…
