Arrest made after vandalism at Lake in the Hills UpRising Bakery and Cafe that led to cancelation of much-anticipated drag show
A suspect has been arrested after a bakery in the village of Lake in the Hills was vandalized, which led to the cancellation of a much-anticipated, family-friendly drag show set to take place at the bakery Saturday, according to a Lake in the Hills Police Department Facebook post.
Regarding the vandalism to UpRising Bakery and Cafe, the police department wrote on Facebook. The suspect has been arrested. More information to follow.
UpRising Bakery and Cafe was hosting a Starry Night Brunch Drag show at the store beginning at 6 p.m. Saturday, according to Facebook. The event, which was sold out, was advertised as a family-friendly evening filled with food and entertainment.
Plus another area business found out the PB's were planning some awful stuff as well, posting this on social media.
