Two nabbed, third sought in Bucktown mugging

Police are hoping the arrest of two men who punched a woman and grabbed her purse in Bucktown this morning will “clear up” a rash of similar muggings that have been plaguing that Northwest Side community recently.
 A man exited a car and slugged the victim in the side of her face – knocking her down -- before snatching her purse and fleeing in the vehicle with two other men.
 The woman, who appeared to be in her 20s, declined to be taken to a hospital after the daylight attack, which happened at North Avenue and Leavitt Street about 10:15 a.m. and left her with a swollen face.
 Two people saw the attack and gave police a description of the mugger and the car, which was spotted not too far away when it “passed right by’’ Wood District police officers who began to follow it. At some point they stopped and all three bailed on foot, but officers were able to apprehend two of them and place them under arrest.
UPDATE:

Authorities charged 17-year-old Travion Lockett, of the 2200 block of West Maypole, for hitting the victim in the face and asssiting a 16-year-old boy with the robbery
