Lightfoot: Stop letting people charged with violent crimes out

Mayor Lori Lightfoot is requesting that U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland send more federal resources to Chicago to help combat the surging crime and gun violence.

A man was attacked and carjacked Tuesday morning in the Lake View East neighborhood.

The 34-year-old was getting into his 2020 Jeep Wrangler around 1:10 a.m. when two people got out of a car and began beating him in the 2800 block of North Orchard Street, police said.

The attackers took his keys and drove off in the victim's car, according to police.
