Three people are in custody after two CBS News Chicago journalists were reportedly attacked Monday afternoon while on assignment near the Adler Planetarium. It’s said that a reporter and a photographer were approached by three men, one of whom had a dog, before the crew’s news truck and equipment were damaged.
Witnesses told the outlet that a white tow truck pulled up as the crew was preparing for a live shot for the second half of the 4 p.m. newscast, and that the dog was allegedly ordered to intimidate or attack the crew, though it did not obey the commands, according to witness accounts.
