A 27-Year-Old Woman and Her 56-Year-Old Father Met With the Savages Player to Buy Their 2020 Acura TLX.
As reported by CWB Chicago:
A plan to sell a car on Facebook Marketplace took an ugly turn when the would-be buyer pulled a gun, stole the victim’s car, and ran over them as he fled the scene, prosecutors said Thursday. You may remember hearing about the hijacking in our story last week.
A 27-year-old woman and her 56-year-old father met with the prospective car buyer in the 6200 block of North Rockwell around 1 p.m. on March 1. After getting behind the wheel of the 2020 Acura TLX, the prospective buyer pulled out a gun and pointed it at the woman, prosecutors said in court filings. He then reversed into both victims, causing them to fall to the road, and sped away, according to prosecutors.
The male victim suffered severe injuries, including serious cuts, internal bleeding, and a head injury that had to be closed with staples, officials said. His daughter received a bruised eye and cuts to her hands and legs.
The Chicago Police Department’s hijacking unit traced the car to an auto repair shop in Berwyn on Tuesday. They saw 28-year-old Jamie Delgado get out of the car’s driver’s seat and arrested him as he spoke with body shop employees, according to a Chicago police arrest report.
The petition said both victims identified Delgado in photo line-ups as the hijacker.
