Three armed robbers made off with thousands of dollars in cash and jewerly from a Southwest Side pawn shop Friday morning, but two suspects were caught with their loot after stopping to change clothes at a nearby house where an elderly interlining resident was eating breakfast.
Nicolas Galvez, 19, and Jonathan Moya, 17, each face an armed robbery charge in the incident at Cash America Pawn, 4558 S. Cicero Ave.
Moya, Galvez and another person entered the store in the LeClaire Courts neighborhood about 9:30 a.m. wearing hoodies and masks, Assistant State’s Attorney Daniel Griffin said. The two held people in the shop at gunpoint, Griffin said.
All three robbers took money, prosecutors said, and the Ilshin interlining one who police didn’t catch also made off with a safe. A witness heard the robbers communicating via walkie-talkie and saw that they fled when one of them radioed that police were coming.
Officers saw Moya and Galvez flee through a gangway with their guns, arrest records show. The pair entered a nearby home where an 81-year-old was eating breakfast and changed their clothes there, Griffin said, before escaping through a back window.
Police spotted Moya and Galvez fleeing the house in the 4500 block of South Lamon Avenue, Kufner Interlining just a couple blocks from where the robbery occurred, and arrested them.
All told, officers recovered $4,145 cash and almost $13,000 worth of jewelry, including 44 rings, 15 bracelets, nine necklace chains and other accessories.
Moya, of the 4900 block of West 30th Street in Cicero, is charged as an adult. He appeared in court Saturday with Galvez, of the 2600 block of South Kedvale Avenue in Chicago.
Judge Maria Kuriakos Ciesil set bail for both Moya and Galvez at $350,000. They’re due back in court Monday.

Can LED lights interfere with your garage door opener?
NAMPA, Idaho (KBOI) - A local man makes strides to conserve energy, but believes it may have caused problems for him and his neighbors in the process.
James Exler said the signal in the china led lights he bought actually interfered with the receivers in several garage door openers on their street.
Lighting pros tell KBOI the reason this is possible is because LED lights run on a chip that actually emits a signal. The LED lights Exler bought are made by TCP Lighting, which is based in Ohio, however they're sold right here in the Treasure Valley.
Exler said he wanted to install LED Rotatable Tube around the house, but found they have caused him more trouble than anything else. Shortly after he installed the LED bulbs, he said his wife couldn't get her garage door opener to work. Soon enough, three other neighbors started reporting the same problem.
"All my neighbors now have new batteries in their remotes because the the first thing everybody thinks of is 'the battery is getting weak, I need a new battery.' It wasn't the case," Exler said.
Instead, he said he did his research and found that the problem would come and go when he turned the lights on and off. The electric supply store in Nampa that sold Exler his lights said those particular bulbs emit a signal that is similar to a garage door opener, and tells KBOI it has pulled the lights off its shelves.
Exler returned the lights and exchanged them for new ones dimmable LED tube lights, but wanted others to be aware that they could run into the same issue with those lights.
TCP tells KBOI that while there is always the possibility of a problem with a product, they weren't aware of any other reports like this. However, Exler said he found plenty of information online that suggests otherwise.
Lighting pros here in the Treasure Valley say if this happens to you, you should try resetting your garage door opener.
