Jermaine Jordan opened Free Hot Meals restaurant three months ago, using money from his car wash business to start cooking and distributing free food in Garfield Park. I felt like I had to do something because I was a victim of being carjacked three times, and each time I thought that my life was over with, Jordan said.
Working single parent Taqueria Little fought to hold back tears as she was gifted an SUV. Little was carjacked at gunpoint on December 6 on her way home from work as she waited to pick up her kids. Two guys approached me and take me out of my car with no shoes on or anything, Little said. I had just cashed my paycheck. Everything was in there. I lost everything.
