Stoppers Crime of the
Week - May 1st, 2008
 Hi,
I'm Officer Paula Morrow, Crime Stoppers' Coordinator
for Sangamon and Menard Counties.
This week Crime Stoppers is seeking information on
a home invasion, robbery and aggravated battery that
occurred on Tuesday, April 15th at 4:30 p.m. in the
2000 block of North 5th Street. The suspect approached
the elderly female victim as she was entering her house.
He then pushed his way into her house, ordering her
to give him money. After the victim gave the suspect
money, he started punching her repeatedly. Her husband
came to check on her and the suspect then began to punch
him in the head and the face. The suspect left the residence
and was last seen running southeast, through Lincoln
Park.
The suspect was described as a black male in his late
20's to early 30's. He was 6'0", 180 lbs. and bald.
He was wearing dark clothes at the time of the attack.
If you have information on this crime, you can remain
completely anonymous by calling Crime Stoppers at 217-788-8427
[1-800-397-2288], submitting
a tip via the internet or use
a cell phone to send a tip. You could get a cash
reward of up to $1000.
Remember Crime Stoppers wants your information, not
your name.
