Across less than an hour on Sunday, ten separate robberies occurred across the Northwest Side of Chicago, prompting police to issue a community alert.
Each time, police say, four Black guys between the ages of 18 and 25 emerged out of a grey Hyundai Elantra brandishing handguns and approached their victims while they stood on the sidewalk or parked their cars. After making demands and stealing possessions, they drove off in the Elantra.
