CHICAGO (WLS) As the number of carjackings in Chicago continue to rise, women are increasingly being targeted by criminals. When night falls, I m put in a predicament in my mind to feel afraid, said Angel Haralson, carjacking victim.
Harlason is a rideshare driver, and was carjacked on New Year s Day by two men. She said in that moment, she thought she was going to die. They were quiet. No one was saying anything. I pulled over to let them out of the car, and I heard the gun click, she recalled.
The gunmen yanked the 33-year-old West Sider out of the car before throwing her to the ground and making off with her RAV-4, Apple Watch and cell phone. Haralson is still bruised, and still frightened.
