Black Flash Mob Group Attacks UIC Student on CTA Bus at Roosevelt and ThroopChicago - A University of Illinois at Chicago student was beaten and robbed of an iPod by a group of men on a CTA bus early Sunday, prompting the university to issue a crime alert.
The student was sitting on a No. 12 CTA bus at 1300 W. Roosevelt Rd. just after midnight when a group of males got on the bus, according to the alert. One suspect struck the student with a glass bottle on the back of his head and took the student’s iPod.
The suspects -- described only as a group of eight to 10 black males all wearing white T-shirts -- then fled southbound from the bus, the alert said. The bus driver then alerted Chicago police, who responded to the incident.
An ambulance took the student to University of Illinois Medical Center at Chicago for treatment, the alert said. The alert said a surveillance video from the bus may be available for review.
Campus police and Harrison Area detectives are investigating. Anyone with information is asked to call UIC police at (312) 996-2830.

No doubt this is racially motivated and a hate crime.
Where is Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton?
