Police Arrest 17-Year-Old In Connection With Carjacking On 103rd Street Last Month
CHICAGO (CBS) -- A 17-year-old has been charged with four felonies in connection with a carjacking last month on the South Side.
The male juvenile was arrested for allegedly taking a "vehicle by force" from a 32-year-old woman and a 66-year-old woman on June 6 in the 3100 block of West 103rd Street in the Beverly neighborhood, police said. The two victims were seated in a vehicle at 4 a.m. in a restaurant parking lot. Three armed assailants came up and pointed both a handgun and a shotgun as they demanded the victims' vehicle, police said.
In the same incident, the offender also robbed a 27-year-old male and a 29-year-old male, police said.
The suspect, who was not named by police because he is a minor, was arrested by the Area Two Hijacking Team on Wednesday in the 1100 block of South Hamilton.
The minor appeared in Juvenile Court today, and he was ordered held in custody.
