An alarming new video has emerged that shows a woman being attacked by a group of young people in downtown Chicago. The footage, posted at the end of this story, is included in a sort of “brag tape” of video clips purportedly recorded during a “large group” incident in the Loop on Saturday night.
After the attack of the woman at 129 North Wabash, another clip shows a man punching a CTA bus operator through a shattered window next to the driver’s seat. Another shows young people jumping on an SUV.
Warning: Disturbing video.
This footage is included in a sort of "mix tape" of social media posts floating purporting to be from the "large group" incident in the Loop on Saturday night.
