"Don't sleep on the subway..."

Police in Forest Park are releasing new details after four individuals were shot and killed on a CTA Blue Line train Monday morning.
According to authorities, police received a 911 call after several individuals were shot onboard the train. Officers responded to the Forest Park station and cleared it of passengers before getting on the train, where they discovered four victims.
Three of the individuals were pronounced dead at the scene, and a fourth died a short time later at a local hospital.
Police have been examining surveillance footage, and it paints a disturbing picture of how the attack unfolded.
Authorities say the footage shows that the four victims were likely asleep in different parts of the train, and that all four were sitting separately as the attack occurred.
Police also believe there were no fights or other confrontations on the surveillance footage. An eyewitness was identified via that footage, and police are working to track the individual down.
The suspect in the case fled the train after the shooting, with police using surveillance footage to identify the individual. The suspect was later found onboard a CTA Pink Line train and was taken into custody. A weapon was also recovered, but it is unclear if it was the same gun used in the attacks.

A friend fell asleep on the Chicago subway train. Probably passed out was more accurate as he was drunk. Someone took a razor or knife and sliced his pant pocket and stole his wallet. He did not notice util he woke up!!
