Five people, including three riding bicycles, were robbed at gunpoint minutes apart early Tuesday in the East Village, Logan Square and Wicker Park neighborhoods.
The first robbery occurred after 12:30 a.m. in the 1500 block of North Milwaukee Avenue in Wicker Park, police said. Three armed robbers stepped out of a silver car and confronted a 53-year-old man who was walking on a sidewalk, demanding his cell phone and wallet at gunpoint before fleeing, according to Chicago police.
