A 17-year-old was arrested and is facing vehicular hijacking charges in connection to a carjacking in West Loop, according to Chicago police.
The teen was taken into custody on Friday after he was positively identified as one of the offenders in the attack on a 54-year-old woman.
According to police, the victim, Liliana Palacios, was confronted by a man who was sitting in her vehicle in the 1100-block of W. Van Buren Street on September 3. Palacios struggled with the man and was seriously hurt after she was dragged by the vehicle that still had her dog inside.RELATED: Days after Chicago carjacking, woman dragged by suspect pleads for help finding missing dog
"I decided to get a dog because I was living by myself, to have some company," Palacios said following the incident. "Now, this guy took my only company I have... I spend a lot of time with him. So I decided to have a dog for some company, but the dog changed my life."Related Topics
