Today's riddle: What is the 1 way to guarantee winning a small fortune at the casino? 🤔 (Answer below!)
• Driver Found Asleep Behind Wheel; $9.8K Bank Fraud: Northbrook Blotter (patch.com) — Northbrook residents can see how local police spent a busy week, from DUI arrests at Dundee and Waukegan to a death investigation on Spring Hill Drive. The blotter also details burglaries to unlocked vehicles, a $9,850 bank fraud case, stolen airline miles, and a phone scam that tricked a resident into mailing expensive electronics.
• Northbrook residents continue outcry over razing plaza; Board sends plan for more review (chicagotribune.com) — Northbrook officials have sent the controversial Meadow Plaza redevelopment plan to the Plan Commission for detailed zoning review after intense pushback from residents worried about losing everyday shops and adding dense condos. The proposal would replace the longtime Cherry Lane shopping center with three six‑story condo buildings, commercial space, and a riverwalk, while residents organize petitions, FOIA requests, and a "Save Downtown Northbrook" campaign.
