The theft of an unlocked red 2006 Honda Civic on March Court off Eckert Lane is under investigation. About 1:15 a.m., suspects in a white 2011 Chevrolet Traverse arrived in the area and one suspect stole the Honda. Another suspect went across the street in an attempt to steal an unlocked black 2012 Ford F350 with its keys inside, police said, but a homeowner scared the suspect from committing that theft. The stolen Civic and the Traverse – later determined to have been stolen from Glen Carbon – sped away, after which an Illinois State Police Emergency Radio Network broadcast was issued for neighboring agencies. A Cahokia police officer saw both suspect vehicles and initiated a pursuit. The Traverse crashed near the Poplar Street Bridge, police said, with the suspects jumping out of it and into the Civic, which continued over the bridge into St. Louis. The suspects, described by a neighbor as black males, have not yet been located.
