A parolee wielding a screwdriver was tackled by two men after he stole a woman's purse in the Lincoln Park neighborhood.
Jose Rodriguez, 30, approached a woman from behind in the 800 block of West Diversey Parkway around 11:45 p.m. Saturday. Rodriguez held an arm around the 29-year-old woman's neck, placed a screwdriver against her body and demanded money.
Rodriguez ran off with the woman's purse.
A 20-year-old man started chasing the man. Rodriguez approached a 24-year-old man walking in the opposite direction, and the 20-year-old yelled for him to stop the robber.
The men tackled Rodriguez and restrained him until officers showed up.
Rodriguez was charged with armed robbery with a dangerous weapon and a parole violation
