Minnesota authorities on Wednesday chased a vehicle after they received an emergency call. Eight men, all from Chicago, were taken into custody in Edina, Minn. after walking out of a Louis Vuitton store with $20,000 in merchandise. "They all came in at once and overwhelmed the store clerk," Edina Police Lt. Brian Tholen said. What the thieves weren't counting on was an alert person in the parking lot who saw the men get into the van with the bags, some costing more than $1,000 each. cbslocal.com
