CHICAGO - A 43-year-old man is facing a felony charge after he was arrested in connection with a robbery Oct. 12 on a CTA train on the Southwest Side.
Lijah Graham was charged with a felony count of robbery, Chicago police said.
About 11:50 p.m. Oct. 12, a 40-year-old man got into a fight with a group of males on a CTA train in the 100 block of West Cermak Road, when they tried to take his things, Chicago police said. The man was punched, pushed to the ground and then kicked.
