Another TV News Crew Reporting on Crime in a Democrat-Run City Gets Robbed While Filming

Another TV news crew reporting on crime in a Democrat-run city can now provide firsthand testimony of just how bad things have gotten.

A Univision Chicago TV crew was reporting on a string of armed robberies across the city of Chicago early Monday morning when three men wearing ski masks robbed the crew at gunpoint.

The Chicago Tribune reported that the victims, a reporter and a photographer who have not been named, were filming a segment for the Spanish-language TV station near the 1200 block of North Milwaukee Avenue in the city’s West Town.

“They were approached with guns and robbed,” said Luis Godinez, vice president of news at Univision Chicago. “Mainly it was personal items, and they took a camera.”

Raza Siddiqui, president of the National Association of Broadcast Employees and Technicians Local 41, indicated the suspects demanded cash from the 28-year-old and 42-year-old male victims, then rifled through their SUV, stealing a camera, a personal backpack, and two bags containing equipment, reported the Chicago Sun-Times.
