Chicago activists patrolling public transit after violent train robbery: report

Chicago activists have reportedly volunteered to patrol Chicago public transit after a man was violently robbed on the Red Line train on Sunday.

The Chicago Police Department’s Transit Branch released photos of two suspects accused of hitting a victim in the head with a bottle and stealing it from the train just before 3 a.m. Sunday.

A group of activists planned to patrol the Red Line on Monday after the incident and apparently volunteered to patrol Chicago Transit for months, according to ABC 7 Chicago.

« We’re going to keep doing this, the untouchables until it’s curbed because people are afraid to go to work, » Eric Lewis, a volunteer patroller, told the outlet. « It’s crazy here. As we stand here, anything can happen. »
