CHICAGO — Two boys, ages 15 and 16, were part of an armed robbery crew that robbed a CTA passenger at the Racine Blue Line station on June 8, police say. CPD continues to look for three more members of the group.

Mass Transit Unit detectives released surveillance images of the robbers on June 10 and asked the public to call them with any information that could help with the investigation. CPD officers arrested the 15-year-old that same day, and the 16-year-old was arrested yesterday, police said.

According to CPD, five young men tried to rob a 17-year-old at gunpoint at the train station around 1:40 p.m. on that Saturday afternoon. The holdup turned violent when the people seen in these CTA surveillance images kicked and beat the victim on the platform, then stole the gym shoes he was wearing and fled, police said.

Did they yell “This is MAGA country!” as they fled?

Must’ve had an overwhelming desire to own a pair of Bass Weejuns.

I was threatened to have my shoes taken in Chicago one year in the mid-90s. (”I’ll take your shoes from you”) They were black “Clyde Frazier” Pumas with a red stripe. By dumb luck, these $35 sneakers I bought at Lechmere happened to match Chicago Bulls colors (Michael Jordan era). I wasn’t trapped on a train, so I just kept on walking. Best pair of sneakers I ever owned for my wide feet.

Why waste time looking for them, even if arrested they won’t even get a slap on the wrist before being turned loose to go right back to stealing and may work up to serious physical assaults.
