  • And thanks to this weather, another broken pipe flooded part of Union Station this afternoon. That's the second time this week at Union Station. [Tribune]
  • Jason R. Chin, a longtime improv performer, director and instructor at iO Theater, passed away Thursday. He was 46. [Tribune]
  • A volunteer during the 2013 Ditka Dash stole $15k, told the police he spent the money on drugs, lawyer fees, child support and WWE tickets for his kids. [DNAinfo Chicago]
  • Meet Kale Chips, one of the newest rescue pups at One Tail At A Time. Kale Chips is going on a diet, since the beagle clocks in at 85 pounds. An adult male beagle should weigh around 22 to 25 pounds. Good luck on your journey to better health, Kale Chips. [Huffington Post Chicago]
