An 18-year-old man tells police he was walking in the 1100 block of Lill. just before midnight last night when two men with a gun tried to rob him.

He tried to escape and started to run when one of the two suspects shot him in the leg.

He was able to drive himself to the hospital and should make a full recovery.

One March 1 in the 2200 N. Halsted St. another student was robbed of his cell phone. And on Jan. 27 in the 1200 W. Fulton Ave and Jan. 18 in the 2400 N. Seminary Ave., two different students were robbed as well. Money was taken.
