Carjacker returns 3-year-old girl safe after driving off with her in the backseat

A carjacker who stole a woman’s SUV Friday evening in Humboldt Park returned to the scene of the robbery shortly after realizing the woman’s 3-year-old daughter was in the backseat.

The woman was delivering food about 6:40 p.m. when a male suspect pulled her out of her Nissan SUV and drove off, Chicago police said.

The suspect went around the block and then returned the toddler to her mother unharmed — though he still took the SUV, police said.

It was later found abandoned in the 900 block of South Richmond Street.

The woman, 26, suffered bruising in the attack and was taken to Humboldt Park Health Hospital, where she was treated and released.

Area Three detectives are investigating.
