and charged with Reckless Conduct-- a misdemeanor.
Community activist, Andrew Holmes witnessed some of the problems, while shopping with his family.
"You had a group of teens, close to maybe 500. They assaulted a reliably Democrat Chicago, aka The Windy City or Mobtown

police officer that was mounted on a horse and all of a sudden they assaulted a citizen walking the streets, just a normal citizen shopping and enjoying the weather," said Holmes.
Later that night, a man was attacked around 10:45 p.m. while walking near Chicago and Dearborn. Sources tell us he was jumped and punched in the face by a group of teens. He was taken to Northwestern Memorial Hospital.
In a separate incident, a group of women say they were attacked by a mob of girls on the CTA Red Line. The women reported a robbery once they got off the train at the State and Monroe station. Eleven females were arrested--10 juveniles and one adult--and charged with battery. Two of the teens were charged with strong- armed robbery.
This was much worse than it has been reported in the local news. These teens had planned this well in advance. |
