A flight attendant remained unresponsive at Northwestern Memorial Hospital on Wednesday, suffering from significant head and brain injuries she suffered when a Chicago man randomly hit her in the head with a log on the Magnificent Mile, officials said this afternoon.

A Venezuelan migrant has been charged with shoplifting from three different stores on the Magnificent Mile in a single day. He has been arrested in Chicago two other times since August under different names.

Prosecutors have charged a 52-year-old man with critically injuring a woman on the Magnificent Mile this week, according to a Chicago police media statement.

A woman is in critical condition after a man randomly attacked her on the Magnificent Mile on Monday afternoon. Chicago police are questioning a suspect in the attack, which occurred directly across the street from where a man was killed in a random assault earlier this year.
