CHICAGO (Sun-Times Media Wire) -
Three men were arrested after police caught them burglarizing a residence in the Roscoe Village neighborhood Tuesday morning.
Chicago residents Tyrone Donald, 22, and Cory Durr, 31, as well as 31-year-old Michael Stephens of Waukegan were each charged with 2 counts of residential burglary, police said.
Police responding to a report of a home burglary in the 3500 block of North Oakley Avenue, found the trio in the midst of the act about 11:10 a.m., police said.

Officers chased the men back into the building and immediately arrested two of them, according to a statement from police News Affairs. The third was later arrested when he was found hiding under a piece of furniture, police said.
Officers searched their vehicle and found items taken from another incident.
The men were scheduled to appear in Cook County Bond Court Wednesday.
