Three people attacked and robbed a man Wednesday night as he exited an Orange Line train at the Roosevelt station, 1167 South State.
The offenders, who are between 17- and 20-years-old, punched the man in the head and took his wallet and phone at 11:08 p.m., according to Chicago police. All three attackers then exited the station.
An ambulance transported the victim to Mercy Hospital for treatment of minor injuries, according to a CPD spokesperson.
CPD said the robbers are three black males — one in a red shirt, one in a gold shirt, and one in a white shirt. No arrests have been made. Area 3 detectives are investigating.
CWBChicago was created in 2013 by five residents of Wrigleyville and Boystown who had grown disheartened with inaccurate information that was being provided at local Community Policing (CAPS) meetings.
Our coverage area has expanded since then to cover Lincoln Park, River North, The Loop, Uptown, and other North Side Areas. But our mission remains unchanged: To provide original public safety reporting with better context and greater detail than mainstream media outlets.
