A robber late last month targeted people at CTA stations in the Loop and the North Side.
In four incidents over the span of just more than a day, the suspect forcefully stole personal property from people’s bags and pockets on trains, platforms and near stations, according to an alert from Chicago police.
The robberies happened:
- about 3 a.m. May 28 in the first block of South State Street;
- about 2:30 a.m. May 29 in the 100 block of North State Street;
- about 2:40 a.m. May 29 in the 500 block of North State Street; and
- about 6 a.m. May 29 in the 2400 block of West Montrose Avenue.
A detailed description of the suspect wasn’t provided.
