Surveillance Pictures Released In Mob Attack On CTA Red Line

CHICAGO (CBS) — Chicago Police hope surveillance pictures help lead them to one of three weekend mob attacks on people downtown.

As WBBM Newsradio’s Bernie Tafoya reports, around 10:30 p.m. Saturday, a 23-year-old man was beaten up on the CTA Red Line near the State-Lake stop Saturday by a group of about six teenagers.

The teens had just stolen the man’s 24-year-old wife’s iPhone 4S. She had dropped the phone, and a teen had picked it up and taken it for himself.

The man told the teen to give his wife her iPhone back. But they instead began punching him in the face.

The group then fled the train at State and Lake streets, near the Chicago Theatre.

In the wake of the attack, the Guardian Angels will be helping by passing out fliers at the State-Lake Red Line subway station and elsewhere.

“We’ll be patrolling the CTA Red Line also, and the subway system, so we’ll be making fliers throughout the week and putting them up, handing them out, and sort of hoping we can jar somebody’s memory, and somebody can recognize that one individual or all the individuals and call the police,” said Guardian Angels Chicago chapter leader Miguel Fuentes.

Obama's boys at it again.

[rockabyebaby]

Holder’s “people”.

[iowamark]

If Obama had a son, he would steal iPhones.

[Ranger Warrior]

Do these boys look like Obama’s sons?

[MNDude]

do the pictures show what I think they’ll show?

[Old Sarge]

Could it have been Hell's Grannies again?

Because AS WE ALL KNOW, feral black youts just CAN'T be involved...

[Steely Tom]

The video camera is racist.

[Noumenon]

The video camera is racist.

And the piano has been drinking...

[canuck_conservative]

Word has it that Al $harpton and Je$$e Jack$on plan to sue the Chicago Transit Authority, for once again “perpetuating the stereotype” that black youths commit crimes....

/s

[Navy Patriot]

Let me guess, negro criminal thugs, white victims, strict gun control, crooked cops, Marxist politicians,...(stop me when I go astray)...

[cuban leaf]

—do the pictures show what I think they’ll show?—

Yes.

[cuban leaf]

--do the pictures show what I think they’ll show?--

Are you thinking what I'm thinking, Pinky?

[lonevoice]

Chicago has 2 murders per day, and 80% +/- of the murders are gang-related. Chicago is lost.

[liberalh8ter]

Holy Moly! The comments at the site are brutal!

Holder and his folk ain't going to like the sound of that.............Just speculating.

[AllAmericanGirl44]

The plan now is to hire more cops.
Heard it from the horses mouth yesterday.
No concern with the root of the problem, just
spend more money cuz that worked so well before.

I agree, Chicago is lost ~

[Altura Ct.]

Oh look they are all black. Just as all of this crap is overwhelmingly black but far be it for us as a nation to admit that. Instead we use euphemisms such as ‘gangs’ and ‘youths’ and pretend race is not a factor meanwhile this BS not only continues but is getting worse.

[MrB]

As I was reading, I was automatically adding additional adjectives to the references to the “teens” and to the “man” in the article.

[GeorgeWashingtonsGhost]

Where's Bernard Goetz when you need him? And there's THIS oldie but goodie too 67 year old veteran beats down a thug on a bus (black kid threw the first punch so too bad for him)

[junta]

They should be interogated as to their adult influences such as preachers, teachers and community leaders and other cultural influences, in other words their “enviroment” needs to be scrutinized severly. And no I do not believe these mob attacks are just thought up out of the blue by these young morons. In Chicago the cops always talk about the “Reverends”, and there is the root of the problem.

[jocon307]

“And the piano has been drinking... “

LOL - great tune!

[Mr. Wright]

Somebody get the Reverend Sharpton and the Reverend Jackson on the line. This racism has got to stop!!!!!!

[Terry Mross]

If the man had a gun and shot the thugs he’d be arrested by now.

[Ken H]

Somebody get the Reverend Sharpton and the Reverend Jackson on the line. This racism has got yo stop!!!!!!

Get the Reverend Mossburg and Pastor Ruger instead.

[gnarledmaw]

I think so Brain...but where are we going to get those tiny panyhose for that many ducks?

Mass transit in my area has led to a significant increase in crime. They put in a light rail system that originates in the inner city and runs 22 miles north to my city. The Police say it has created a “corridor of crime” that is about 2-3 blocks wide following the entire length of the track. Holder's people get on the train with empty backpacks and return with full backpacks. Almost all the crime is “smash and grab” taking stuff out of parked cars and homes. They are now putting an armed police officer in every car but it has not helped the crime.

[Lurker]

help lead them to one of three weekend mob attacks

The ferals are getting restless it seems.

And the piano has been drinking...

Not me....

[Little Ray]

Well, that does it. Nobody in my family is using the MARTA train. If I have to take a day off to drive them to the airport, they are not riding through Atlanta.

[crosshairs]

Get the Reverend Mossburg and Pastor Ruger instead.

Don't forget Rabbi Sig Sauer.

[crosshairs]

Ain’t no Africans within 200 miles of where I call home here in Alaska; no crime, no cops, no taxes, just unbelievable country & hunting. You all can have all the inner city ethnics.

Frozen paradise.

[Balding_Eagle]

Holy Moly! The comments at the site are brutal!

That hardly describes them! Man, people are fed up.

[Little Ray]

Not many where I live. But sometimes we have to go South and cross Atlanta to get to the airport.

Used to use the Atlanta metro - big improvement over city traffic. But no more.

So that's why inner city denizens push for light rail between cities... Makes sense now.

[Ken H]

Don't forget Rabbi Sig Sauer.

Isn't he the one who lox and loads?

[MagnoliaB]

I’m so glad things have improved in Chicago since the ballerina took over. (rolls eyes)

[Mr. Wright]

Please know that I was being cynical. (LOL)

[Neoliberalnot]

Ask yourself how many cities and countries run by Affies are successful.

[baddog 219]

Obama's sons...

[Ken H]

I know:)

[cuban leaf]

I think so Brain...but burlap chafes me so.

Yours cracked me up. I seem to have missed that one.

[Noumenon]

The ferals are getting restless it seems.

Yep - they've gotten what amounts to a free pass from Holder to do what they like - which is 'get Whitey'.

Sooner or later they're going to slip up and pick the wrong target - just like mutant zombie Trayvon. Live like a thug, die like a thug.

[Lurker]

Some of the comments at the site are cracking me up. My favorite so far “we don’t need antique farm equipment causing trouble.” Brutal....

[Eska]

I have a huntin buddy from Covington and he tells me that the cops down there are scared of the blks & gangs.

[OldMissileer]

Holy Moly! The comments at the site are brutal!

I wasn't going to click the link until I read this post of yours.

I cannot believe an organization as liberal as CBS would not delete and block comments after reading what has been posted there.

I finally think a vast number of people are finally opening their eyes and even the leftist media is afraid of the blow-back if they try to keep stifling the truth.

[liberalh8ter]

Unfortunately, they're probably gathering them to prove their allegations of racism in America. They'll never admit the welfare State is a failed liberal experiment and the prevailing opinion of sensible people is the expected outcome.

[sport]

I would not say that they are scared, maybe so, maybe not. But I will go out on a limb and say that they have got the message loud and clear that if they as much as mess the hair on one of obama's sons or one Holder's people up, that they are in a world of shit. America's favorite reverends and the self hating White Liberals will call down fire and brimstone on them.

They have learned that life is simpler when one leaves Holder's people and obama's sons alone.

[Noumenon]

Yeah, sentiments are ‘running high,” you might say. Writers like Jared Taylor are starting to make an appalling amount of sense.

There’s no fixing any of this. All that’s left are consequences.

[Noumenon]

Then there's this one:

Just wait until these animals watch their Marxist messiah obama go down in flames in November. It is going to be entertaining watching them burn their own neighborhoods to the ground. If they step out of their own slums, they will find out who has been buying all the weapons and ammo for the last four years.

On a similar note, my advice to the entitled classes is: best not to cross the state line here. Idaho is, after all, a Class 3 state.
