CHICAGO (Sun-Times Media Wire) - A woman was robbed and carjacked at gunpoint Saturday night in the Lakeview neighborhood on the North Side.
At 7:28 p.m., the 31-year-old was sitting in her parked 2016 Chevrolet Cruze in the 1000 block of West Barry when a male walked up and ordered her to open the driver’s side door, implying he had a handgun, according to Chicago Police. A second male then walked up to the victim and stole her backpack, which had her laptop, cellphone and cash inside.
The suspects drove off in the Chevrolet, which was later found unoccupied in the 3000 block of West Lexington, police said.
No one was in custody as Area North detectives investigated the incident.
