Emus in the Heartland
Vermilion County Animal Control officials warned residents in the Danville (Illinois) area to contact authorities if they spot the flightless birds and not attempt to capture them, as the flightless animals could severely injure a person with their sharp claws.

Interesting, I hadn't heard that. Danville is off I-74 in Illinois just a few miles from the Indiana border (146 miles south of Chicago).

At top speed (assuming the emu could sustain top speed for that long), it would take an emu a little under five hours to get to Chicago from Danville.
