A brazen armed robbery occurred around 4:23 p.m. on Thursday, February 12, 2026, in Chicago’s Fulton Market when two male suspects approached a 49-year-old man on the 200 block of North Peoria Street, demanding his property at gunpoint before assaulting him and fleeing in an SUV. Social media video captured by @landon20s shows one suspect, a Black male in gray tracksuit and red gloves, pointing a handgun at the victim on the ground while a second in black jeans with ripped knees and hooded jacket over graphic tee takes his belongings; additional people may have aided the getaway. The victim refused medical aid, no arrests have been made, and Area Three detectives are investigating amid calls for more patrols and cameras in the trendy West Loop area plagued by recent robberies.
