Boystown: Man knocked to the ground, robbed
A man was thrown to the pavement and robbed in Chicago’s Lakeview, Boystown neighborhood early Friday morning, said police.
Around 1:29 a.m., a 911 caller heard a man screaming for help on the 600 block of West Buckingham Place, near Buckingham and Broadway, on the city's North Side.
The 911 caller also saw three people running away from the scene.
According to police, three suspects approached the victim, knocked the victim on the ground, and went through the victim’s pockets.
Authorities said the offenders stole the victim’s wallet.
The suspects were described as three male blacks.
One of the muggers has a light complexion, and may be Hispanic.
Another suspect’s hair was braided.
All three offenders were wearing black or dark gray hooded sweatshirts.
After the robbery, the crooks ran westbound on Buckingham Place.

Cowardly pieces of sh*t
ReplyDeletewhat a suprise, they were black
ReplyDeleteWhen it's one-on-one they usually don't get a chance to take anything, they just hit and RUN! Wah, wah, wah, ooooohhhh I dun didded it naw. Dis one dun didddidn't fall down! Mama! Mama! Ooops, da red line be up over dat way. mama!
ReplyDeleteLakeview/Boystown seems to be the main area for crime of late. A lot going on there. Again, easy access to the ghetto express that takes these ghetto thugs back to their own neighborhoods that they have robbed blind and shot up.
ReplyDeleteThey are a bunch of wild pack animals looking for their next prey. We NEED CC NOW! We're like sheep being led to slaughter with NOTHING to defend ourselves. Our elected officials CANNOT relate to us as victims because they can carry a weapon and have body guards.
It's also Chicago's warped sense of "diversity" & "PC" that is not allowing your cops to do their jobs. As I was told by a native, "they're afraid of being sued". It's blatantly obvious.
ReplyDeleteAgain, though, the businesses in that area have the biggest responsiblity in this (the resident's do as well). You can't tell me they don't have some "pull" to clean up the loitering and very obvious paper trail, video camera trail, witness account trail of who the criminals are, or who the potential criminals will be.
I've had some fun now and then around there, but I've written it off. No respect. At all. (But as long as that $$ is flowing in who cares, right?).
Blacks are only good for crimes! Let's gather them all up and send them to the South where the whites won't put up w this. Better yet, let's ship them to Africa and see how long they last there. Stupid niggers!

ReplyDeleteI agree. I have been constantly harassed by the lowlifes who hang out around the Clark/Addison McDonalds all day. I started taking a different route home from the train and still run into them wandering around sometimes. I wish McDs would do something about them loitering all day, every day!
