Three of the six robbers were hospitalized after also being wounded. Police said a 52-year-old man was in serious condition with a stab wound to the neck, a 36-year-old man was in fair condition with cuts to his arm, and a 24-year-old man was stabilized after suffering a stab wound to the back.The three other attackers were taken into custody, in addition to the three who were hospitalized, police said.
Chicago fire officials said a fifth person, a CTA employee, was taken to a hospital for observation for “anxiety” followed in incident. CTA was assisting the Chicago Police Department in its investigation, including sharing video from security cameras. CTA said in a statement that, “This kind of violence is absolutely unacceptable, and we applaud the Chicago Police Department for its quick actions to arrest the suspects.”
