Over the weekend in Chicago, a violent crime took place on a Chicago Transit Authority train in downtown Chicago. Four men are accused of robbing and strangling a 49-year-old man on Saturday afternoon. The victim was reportedly beaten, choked, and robbed while riding the train. Fortunately, the police responded swiftly and managed to arrest all four suspects within 45 minutes of the incident.
The suspects, aged between 18 and 22, are facing serious felony charges of robbery and aggravated battery. They provided the 300 block of South Plymouth Court as their address. Interestingly, this block is home to a city-run migrant shelter that was established in what used to be a private club. The shelter, which opened last May, currently houses over 700 migrants and has the capacity to accommodate up to 1,200 individuals.
