A social media video showed a mob of young kids during the ‘Teen Takeover’ in Chicago beating and robbing a woman.
The woman was trying to get into her apartment building:
The video, which was widely circulated on social media as part of a larger “mix tape” of the downtown riot over the weekend, shows a woman appearing to attempt to enter the doorway of 129 Wabash Avenue in Chicago, an apartment building near the city’s Millennium Park.However, before she gets inside, the woman is surrounded by a large group of people who block the doorway. Some then pounce on her, the video shows.The woman, identified as 18 to 24-years old, was with a 22-year-old male victim during the attack, Chicago police said.The mob surrounded the victims and multiple people “struck the victims several times before taking their personal property and fleeing in an unknown direction,” the police report said. No arrests have been made in the incident, while the victims were transported to the University of Illinois Hospital with what were classified as “minor injuries.”
Where the hell is the media? I’m having trouble finding information about the Teen Takeover in Chicago media. I shouldn’t be surprised, but I am.
The teens destroyed property, attacked tourists, and smashed car windows:
Large groups of teens were seen blasting music from Bluetooth speakers and roaming in front of traffic, with some attempting to gain access to the city’s Millennium Park, which is off-limits to those under 21 after certain hours, and the downtown Art Institute.Some teens in the group began jumping up and down on cars, smashing windows and attacking people inside. One woman told Fox 32 her husband was attacked from the driver side of his vehicle and beaten after a group of teens jumped up and down on the couple’s windshield. The man was taken to a local hospital for treatment.
Police arrested 16 people after the weekend. Residents don’t feel safe anymore.
This is just…I have no words.
