A Chicago rideshare driver shot two alleged robbers who stole his cellphone and fired at him while he was working overnight Friday, according to police.
The 26-year-old, who is a concealed carry license holder, had just dropped off a passenger on the city’s West Side, when the alleged robbery occurred just after 1 a.m. in the 1500 block of Millard, according to WBBM-TV.
The suspects were described as a 20-year-old man shot in the right leg, and an 18-year-old woman grazed by a bullet on the right arm, the Chicago Police Department said in a release.
