Police searching for suspects in connection with multiple armed robberies in southwest suburbs

ORLAND PARK, Ill. — Orland Park Police said two suspects wanted in connection with an armed robbery there Tuesday morning may be behind multiple incidents across the southwest suburbs.

According to police, a worker exiting Norman’s Cleaners around 8 a.m. Tuesday was confronted by two suspects, including one with a firearm, who took his cash and cell phone.
