Mayor Brandon Johnson addressed multiple issues the city is currently facing Wednesday, particularly a teen takeover in the South Loop where a store was vandalized.
Johnson's comments on the subject were part of a wide-ranging news conference, dealing with concerns including migrants and safety around Lollapalooza coming up this weekend.
"The teen mobs is something that seriously needs to be taken seriously, and I would love to talk to him about it," store owner Johnathan Nowak said. "Because I don't think there's nothing being done yet."Mayor Johnson said efforts by police have averted some other teen takeovers, which he referred to as trends. However, he refused to call out those young people for their criminal behavior.
"My position has not changed, that transitioning individuals to other police stations is still top of mind," Johnson said. "Finding more adequate places for shelter for families, that is top of mind. Having full wraparound services for families who wish to call the city Chicago their home, that is still top of mind.
