Chicago Police are searching for a man who pushed a woman down and took her video camera last week outside Trump Hotel in the Loop.

The 26-year-old woman was recording an engagement video about 6:45 p.m. June 21 outside of the Trump Hotel at 401 N. Wabash when a man wearing camouflage pants pushed her down and took her camera and tripod, according to a statement from police.

The man then ran west with another male, police said.

Anyone with information is asked to contact Area Central detectives at (312) 747-8380.
