2 businesses broken into on same street in Old Town

Two businesses were broken into on adjoining blocks of busy Wells Street in Chicago's Old Town neighborhood early Tuesday morning. 

Around 4:15 a.m., Chicago police said two men broke the windows of Old Town Pub, at 1339 N. Wells St. After entering the bar, the group fled northbound in a gray sport-utility vehicle. 

It is not clear if anything was taken from the business. 

Around the same time, a group of at least three people broke into Winnie's, another bar, at 1400 N. Wells St. Winnie's opened in the old Broken English Taco Pub space back in the fall.

Police said the group broke the front window at Winnie's, took the cash register and also drove off in a silver SUV. 

No arrests have been made. 

Belmont Area detectives are investigating both burglaries.   

Burglaries were also reported overnight in River North and in Lakeview. The Gold Coast Market liquor store, at 71 W. Chicago Ave., was broken into, and a cash register was taken from Neva Hangry, at 3404 N. Clark St.
