Description

Defendants, Willie Henry Harris and Frank Anderson Strowhorn, were convicted of burglary by a jury in Kankakee County. The appellate court affirmed the conviction and we granted leave to appeal. 131 Ill. App.2d 824. On November 12, 1969, between 9 P.M. and 11 P.M. the Indiana Fruit Market in Kankakee was burglarized and a 200 lb. cash register was taken. At 10 o'clock the next morning two officers of the Kankakee Police Department placed under surveillance a rooming house which occupied the second floor of a building above a tavern, cleaning establishment, cafe and other businesses. A single stairway led to the second floor where some 13 rooms were located and where both defendants lived in separate rooms. While observing the premises the officers saw several people entering and leaving the stairs to the second floor. Harris and Strowhorn made several trips up and down the stairs and Strowhorn was seen entering the cleaning establishment. Another man later emerged from the cleaning establishment carrying a large white canvas bag and went back up the stairs. Later, Harris and Strowhorn also went back up the stairs. Shortly thereafter Strowhorn came back down followed by two men carrying what appeared to be a heavy object in a white canvas bag and Harris followed behind them. When they reached the bottom, the officers testified, the four men proceeded to carry the heavy object in the bag for several yards, at which time the officers arrested them.
