Yellowdog- at the time the information re the license plate was publicized I did a check on license plates - the states that would fit the description would be Florida, New Jersey or maybe Louisiana. I still think it's bizzare really that this guy just drove up, parked and did this then walked out and slowly drove away. It's what made me think he may have been a nut case. Actually he had to have been!
This week the Omaha World Herald mentioned this case in an editorial about all the unsolved crimes, especially in the Dundee area. They had a comment that was a bit suggestive: they mentioned the crime then referred to it as 'having no suspect that the police are now willing to name.'
To me this speaks volumes, something may be going on. Sounds like they have someone but are not able to make the arrest as yet. Let's hope so.
The police did solve a violent murder of a convenience store clerk that occured less than a mile from this crime scene, arrest made this week. It was a 15 year old Hispanic kid, sound like he and other young punks have been breaking into homes and doing robberies. Wouldn't be at all surprised to read that this leads to an arrest in this one.
