Tharin Moore, 35, of the 9600 block of South Emerald Avenue, was arrested after a brief food chase, according to Downers Grove Police Department news release.

Downers Grove police responded about 4 a.m. to the 1300 block of Ogden Avenue for a report of suspicious persons and spotted a broken window at Ogden Tobacco and Vape, 1319 Ogden Ave.
