Teen arrested for sulfuric acid attack
A teenager has been arrested in California and charged with throwing sulfuric acid on a woman in Chicago’s Logan Square neighborhood. Where does a teen acquire sulfuric acid?? The internet?
Picking a woman at random to rob in the early-morning hours of July 28, a 16-year-old girl walked up to a woman in Logan Square, threw sulfuric acid in her face and stole her purse, Chicago police said Sunday.
The teen was arrested near Stockton, Calif., where she has relatives, and was charged with armed robbery and heinous battery.
Her name was not released Sunday at a news conference led by Police Cmdr. Joseph Salemme because she is a juvenile, but police said the charges may be moved to adult court.
A second teenage girl is sought as an accomplice, police said.
