Four armed-robbery suspects are in custody after they fled from a fiery crash Monday in Ravenswood.
The driver of a Hyundai that was reported stolen was heading south about 10:40 a.m. in the 5100 block of North Oakley Avenue when it struck a stopped Chicago Streets and Sanitation vehicle, according to Chicago police.
The collision caused the Hyundai to catch fire, and four people left the car and fled the area, police said.
They were taken into custody a short time later. Three guns were recovered, police said.
