CHICAGO – Police are trying to track down two men who attacked and attempted to rob Red Line passengers in Rogers Park.
The victim was on a train near Granville when the two men seen in this surveillance footage tried to take his wallet and backpack around 10:40 p.m. on Nov. 13, police said. A fight broke out when he resisted and the trespassers punched him before slipping away.

CWBChicago was founded in 2013 by five residents of Wrigleyville and Boystown who had become discouraged by the inaccurate information presented during local Community Policing (CAPS) meetings. Our coverage area has since expanded to Lincoln Park, River North, The Loop, Uptown and other North Side areas. But our mission remains unchanged: to provide original public safety reporting with better context and more detail than mainstream media. Our editorial email address is news@cwbchicago.com
