Man grabs kid in mall, found not guilty by reason of insanity

A 19-year-old who grabbed a child on an outing to a suburban Chicago mall has been found not guilty because he doesn’t have the mental capacity to understand his crime.

Arthur Robinzine, 19, of the 800 block of South Wolcott Avenue has been in the custody of the Illinois Department of Human Services since January.

After Robinzine was arrested Dec. 6 for grabbing a 4-year-old Elgin boy from Spring Hill Mall, he was charged with attempted aggravated kidnapping and other crimes.

Robinzine was tackled by a chaperon and a cell phone company employee who worked at the shopping center. The boy was not injured.
