CHICAGO -- Children were inside a car when it was stolen and crashed in Chicago Thursday morning, police said.
A woman was making a newspaper delivery on the city's Northwest Side when she exited her car, a Jeep Liberty, which was still running, in the 5600 block of North Sacramento Avenue. Two girls, 12 and 10 years old, were in the car's backseat. A black sedan, possibly a Dodge Charger, pulled up behind the Jeep and an unknown male offender exited the passenger side. The man got into the running Jeep and fled, with the sedan following.
