WATCH: Elderly Woman Robbed at Gunpoint in Broad Daylight in Mayor Lori Lightfoot’s Chicago

An elderly woman was robbed at gunpoint in broad daylight Wednesday while walking her dog in Lincoln Park, a neighborhood in Mayor Lori Lightfoot’s (D) Chicago.

FOX 32 reported the woman was walking her dog around 11:20 a.m. when a man exited a blue Honda CRV, pointed a gun at her, and robbed her.

The man grabbed her purse, jumped back into the Honda, and sped off.

Mike Walker, the elderly woman’s son-in-law, indicated the robbery adds to the anxiety over crime in the neighborhood:

CBS News noted that the video of the robbery was captured by Lincoln Park resident David Hussar’s surveillance camera.

Hussar stressed that the robbery does not surprise him one bit: “I mean, it’s no shock at all. I worry about my wife. I worry about my kids. It’s absurd.”

Breitbart News observed more than 3,200 people were shot in Mayor Lightfoot’s Chicago from January 2022 through November 2022.
