He couldn’t tow the truck the nearly 30 miles back to the shop because tipping the trailer up could be even more dangerous for the chickens, Loucks said, so his team chained up an axle and had the semi drive back to Super Truck Service on eight wheels instead of 10.

Both Ald. Keith Turner, 6th Ward, and Ald. Felix Rivera, 7th Ward, said they want the Waukegan Park District to install a gate at Bowen Park — and perhaps others — to keep people out when the park is closed. They want to know how such a large crowd could assemble unnoticed.
Medline on Saturday said it agreed to sell a majority stake in the company to funds managed by private equity firms Blackstone Group, Carlyle Group and Hellman & Friedman. Medline CEO Charlie Mills and President Andy Mills, who are cousins, declined to disclose the size of the stake and the value of the deal Tuesday, but said 20 to 30 family members should benefit from it.

The driver, Jason Mitchell, 35, of the 3500 block of Greene Street in Steger, Illinois, disregarded officers’ attempt to pull him over and he continued to flee east on U.S. 30, according to the release. Mitchell then turned south on U.S. 41 through Schererville and St. John, police said.
