CHICAGO - Two Chicago men were arrested and charged for allegedly robbing a woman and teenage girl at gunpoint, and then crashing a stolen car into a police vehicle earlier this week on the city's South Side.

Kytwone Jenkins, 19, and Demereon Jackson, 18, were taken into custody around 8:05 p.m. on Monday after police say they took property at gunpoint from a 28-year-old woman in the 5300 block of S. Kimbark Ave. and 16-year-old girl in the 4500 block of S. Woodlawn Ave.

The suspects were quickly located after crashing a stolen vehicle into an unmarked CPD vehicle, police said.
