University Of Chicago Police Issue Warning After Robbers Target Seven People In Hyde Park Within An Hour And A Half
In each incident, the suspects implied a weapon, but never displayed one.
By CBS Chicago Staff:
CHICAGO (CBS) — Chicago and University of Chicago Police have warned students to be on guard after a string of armed robberies not far from campus in Hyde Park.
Detectives said seven victims were targeted in four incidents over the weekend – all within a period of an hour and a half. Given the short timeframe and geographic proximity, police believe the robberies may have been part of a pattern.
