CHICAGO — A group of teens viciously attacked a man at a Chicago intersection while some people shouted "Don't vote Trump!" and "You voted Trump?"

The attack, captured on video, happened in daylight at the intersection of South Kedzie Avenue and West Roosevelt Road in North Lawndale.

In the 32-second video, two men, possibly teens, are seen punching and kicking an older man in the street.

As the two men attacked the victim, one witness yelled: "You voted Trump?" and "Beat his a--." Another witness said, "Don't vote Trump" and "Steal his stuff."

During the attack, one of the attackers appears to steal an item from the victim, possibly a cell phone.

The attackers may have also stolen the man's vehicle. In a second 45-second video, one of the attackers is seen jumping into the gold car at the intersection. In an attempt to stop the attacker from driving away, the victim hangs on to the rear driver's side window. As the attacker speeds away from the scene, the victim is dragged by the car, according to the video.

Chicago Police are aware of the video and were investigating the incident early Thursday, according to Officer Nicole Trainor, a police spokeswoman. Police do not yet know what time the attack happened.

The video, posted at 9:26 p.m. Wednesday on Twitter, was retweeted more than 4,000 times in less than 12 hours. It was also shared on YouTube and other social media sites.

It happened right down the street from my house. In fact, I went to the Leamington Foods in that shopping center just last night.

I see it on the NBC and CBS sites. Nothing on the Tribune site.

Had the skin colors of the attackers and victim been reversed and they were saying "Don't Vote Hillary" I have a hard time believing this would not be national news. And by national news I mean leading the news with the races of those involved prominently displayed, not a story on page 3 of the Sacramento Bee.

I'd tell spmack to call the police and tell them who he thinks the attackers were but I don't want them to follow a bunch of false leads.

I hope it does gain traction. It's horrible no matter who is involved, not just when race can be used to further an inflammatory narrative.

I particularly enjoy them dragging that obviously privileged and well-to-do white guy out of his mid-to-late '90s Toyota and filming the righteous beatdown with an $800 phone (or whatever phones cost these days ... I have no idea).

Watch the video, he tried getting back into his car, but one of his attackers had already repurposed it as an UBER.

MANY are saying this is an old video and was on WorldStar (whatever that is) months ago, and that the Trump stuff is voiced over.

No idea if true.
