Chicago police are investigating multiple break-ins reported early Wednesday morning, according to local reports.

One group of four male suspects is accused of smashing the door of a business located on the 4600 block of N. Cumberland Avenue, about 30 minutes northwest of downtown Chicago, and stealing its cash register before fleeing in an SUV — possibly a Jeep, according to the Chicago police.

The group of four suspected offenders all wore hooded sweatshirts, gloves and face masks during the incident, police said.

A spokesperson for Elmwood Park told CBS2 that a black Jeep was involved in all four burglaries. It is unclear, however, if the suspects accused of burglarizing the business on the 4600 block of Cumberland are connected to the other three burglaries.
