A Chicago man is facing a slew of felony charges after allegedly robbing a man at gunpoint and then staying at the scene to eat the victim’s takeout fried chicken.

Chicago police arrived at the robbery scene within minutes and allegedly found James Taylor, 20, still there, enjoying the victim’s delicious fried chicken.

Officials said the victim, 35, parked in front of his home in the 4500 block of South Calumet around 1:30 a.m. Saturday and started to head toward his residence with his piping hot yardbird.

When the victim turned around, Taylor was pointing a pistol at his face, prosecutor Kenneth Flesch said. The victim handed over his keys, $2 in cash, a debit card, and the fried chicken.

Taylor, according to Flesch, climbed into the victim’s car and went to work on the chicken while the victim dialed 911. Police arrested Taylor a few minutes later.

He is charged with armed robbery with a firearm, aggravated unlawful use of a weapon, aggravated possession of a stolen motor vehicle, and illegal possession of a debit card.

Judge Ankur Srivastava ordered Taylor to pay a $15,000 bail deposit to go home on electronic monitoring.

The victim didn’t know he was going to have a dinner guest. He needed to order an extra meal! 🤓

I’m impressed the Chicago police arrived within minutes. I am under the impression such speedy responses are a thing of the past. Maybe it’s the fried chicken.
