Hmmmm. Maybe if these guys that watch and harrass me actually did something useful maybe Stacy Peterson would have been found by now or maybe if these guys out roaming Chicago looking for the "right kind of suspects" not "suspects" of politcal/belief orientation then these two crimes wouldn't have happened.

A MESSAGE FROM UIC POLICE

Chicago police say two UIC students were the victims of an armed robbery that
occurred last night at 850 S. Western Avenue (off campus).  According to police, the
students were walking in an alley when two offenders approached them, displayed
handguns, and demanded 
money. The victims said they had no money and the offenders then forced them into a
green minivan driven by a third man. The offenders 
demanded the victims' credit cards and PIN numbers. The victims 
initially refused but after the offenders threatened to kill them both, the students
provided the information. The victims then were bound with tape and driven for
approximately 20-30 minutes before being released in the area of 37th and Rockwell.
The offenders took the victims' credit cards, checkbooks, and cell phones. One
victim received minor lacerations to the mouth and was treated at the UIC Medical
Center and released.

The other offenders were described as a white male in his 20s, 5-9, 150 pounds, and
an African American male in his 20s, 6-2, 185 pounds.
