Mobs rob and beat citizens on city streets

Chicago, Illinois - One man was smoking a cigar on a bench in the Streeterville neighborhood when his evening was interrupted by a group of young men who robbed and beat him. Another man was parking his motor scooter outside Northwestern University’s downtown campus when the same group apparently made him their next victim, police said. Police believe the group of about 15 to 20 youths in their mid- to late teens also was responsible for two more attacks moments later along the lakefront. At least seven people thought to be part of the group were arrested. Pictured: Dvonte Sykes, Trovolus Pickett, Derodte Wright.  More
