CHICAGO (WLS) -- A festive event meant to spread holiday cheer on Chicago's South Side took an unfortunate turn after a group of volunteers were robbed.

It happened during an event called "Be Part of the Light" put on by My Block, My Hood, My City. A group of four women helping to decorate with the organization were finishing up their hours-long efforts on 48th Street and King Drive.

SOMEDAY, hope they change the way they have been voting. Really is sad, nice people trying to do some good, and some thugs show up. Probably some kids who didn’t have a dad.

I’d like to characterize this as a SUV crime.

Police said a white SUV pulled up just before 4:00 p.m. At least two suspects hopped out and demanded the women's property before taking off with a purse, a wallet and a fanny pack.

Note that it was an emphatic example of white SUV superiority at work here!

My block
my hood
it’s no damn good

The bro’s come by
in a $40 grand sled
And tell me I will soon be dead
if I don’t give ‘em
all I have,
my pack and all my bread.

They stole the orphan
fund dough
and the church collection plate
but still had time to
threaten me
with death to be my fate.

While God just looks away
the thugs now have full sway.
The devil’s in charge of them
because the folks all voted Dem.
