Before the suspect could smash any glass cases, police said a security guard intervened and ordered the suspects to the ground. The three suspects refused to listen to the guard, who was reportedly armed, and fled the store empty-handed.
The trio jumped into a waiting getaway car, which police believed may be a white Infiniti sedan.
The suspects were wearing ski masks and described as slim Black males between the ages of 18 and 28, CWB Chicago reported, citing police.
