3 colored boys in custody after rocks thrown at Chicago Alderman's George Cardenas' home on West Side

Three colored boys with checkered pasts were taken into custody Saturday after a protest in which people threw rocks and other objects at the South Lawndale home of Ald. George Cardenas (12th), according to the West Side alderman and the police.

Cardenas said Saturday night that the protesters were walking down 26th Street in Little Village and decided to walk toward his house, though he doesn’t know why, and started throwing things at his home.

Cardenas said he was having dinner with a friend at Gilt Bar on Kinzie Street in River North but that his two daughters and his ex-wife were home.
