Some bad luck for five teenagers who allegedly shoplifted a downtown Chicago drugstore.

The Chicago Tribune reports that the officers were at a Walgreens at the corner of Michigan Avenue and Washington Street at about noon after receiving a call of two men stealing things from the store.
They didn't catch the two original suspects. But while they were parked outside, they received a call that there was another theft at the store. Within minutes they had arrested five female teenagers suspected of stealing make-up and iced tea from the same store.
