West Town

An armed robber shot a 35-year-old man during a hold-up that netted him a backpack early Sunday in West Town, according to Chicago police.

Two teenagers carjacked a man at West Town service station and one of them tried to ram cops’ patrol cars with the stolen SUV when police caught up with them, according to Chicago police.

Prosecutors on Tuesday charged a 19-year-old West Side man with committing two armed carjackings — one in West Town last month and another in Humboldt Park over the weekend.

Police are hoping that a new carjacking and robbery arrest will bring them closer to shutting down a group of criminals who have been working West Town and, possibly, other parts of the city.

Carjackers put a gun to the head of a Cook County Circuit Court judge outside her West Town home on Thursday night — but the judge was able to get her 3-year-old son out of the car before the hijackers drove away with her vehicle.

Prosecutors say a man who hijacked a car in West Town on Tuesday afternoon was still wearing a ski mask when cops found him with the stolen car about an hour later.
