An attack on State Street. Where were the police? WTF is going on?

 

Don't talk to the mayor about violent attacks by the gangs of youth. The mayor wants to know if you have your mask on.

CHICAGO  A woman was begging for her attackers to stop, but they just kept swinging – punching her in the face.

Days after the Chicago woman was thrown to the ground by a group of teen assailants downtown, she talked only to CBS 2’s Jermont Terry.

The woman and her boyfriend were on their way to the Chicago Transit Authority Red Line subway at State Street and Jackson Boulevard Saturday night. They were waiting for the elevator at ground level to go down to the platform.

But they never made it. Instead, trouble found them, surrounded them, and attacked

them.

“I was screaming: ‘Please, stop, stop!’” the woman said.

The woman screamed in desperation as she was attacked around 11:30 p.m. Saturday.

“If this area is not safe, where are the cops?” the woman said. “I’m surprised, like this happening in the Loop. I heard the Loop is a nice place.”

But after coming downtown for a date and then being attacked by the group of teens, the woman has been left severely injured.

“I need plastic surgery, because the bones are broke, and still bleeding inside,” the woman said.

The scars and bruising are concealed behind the shades the woman now wears over her eyes. But the pain is deeper.

“I was saying, ‘Why?’ Asking, ‘Why did you do that to me?’” the woman said.

Two male attackers initially approached the woman’s boyfriend. He ignored them, and they clocked him over the head from behind.

“Then I said: ‘Uh-oh, that’s not safe. We have to run. Then I ran. They’re chasing. There came more – like seven or nine. They kept chasing me,” the woman said.

Video from an Uber driver passing by picks up in the middle of the attack. The woman said teenage girls were throwing punches too.

“The girl, she take me from my hair, pulled me down,” the woman said. “I couldn’t see anything, or how many was hitting me. They just kept punching me in my face harder.”

The video shows the woman collapse in the middle of the street. Her boyfriend tried pulling her to safety, but she said she was disoriented.

“The one thing I was thinking about is, I need to save my life,” the woman said.

During the attack, a rideshare driver told the man and woman to jump in.

Terry: “Had it not been for that Uber driver having compassion?”

Woman: “They’re going to continue to hurt us.”

The woman is furious to know there were four other attacks by the same group – and despite police arresting some, it was disheartening to know that as of Wednesday night, no one was in custody.

“Maybe because they’re teenagers? I don’t know,” the woman said. “I don’t have no idea.”

MORE NEWS: 

But the woman is pushing for charges, and wants the attackers prosecuted to the fullest extent – because, she says, the pain and fear they inflicted is not the action of mere mischievous juveniles.

 

WTF is going on with the police and these assailants? There have been numerous other attacks in the area and no police? Why aren't these bastards in jail?

    Only dumb liberals are downtown waiting to go down to the subway at the hour. Im sure she is a BLM democrat voting liberal. WTF should the police be doing anything when Foxx doesnt prosecute and they could get into more trouble then the offenders Until this useless bitch leaves or gets voted out and the mayor starts backing the police unlike bashing the police, no police work should be done. Stay home idiotsm its not safe downtown

  3. You heard the loop was safe??? Sureasell not the Chicago loop. It's not safe in the middle of the day and way less so after 6 PM. Stay out of downtown or take your lumps. The gangs own Chicago.
