Overview
- Officers responded around 2:52 a.m. to the 69th Street Red Line platform and found a 34-year-old man with stab wounds to his neck and chest.
- The Chicago Fire Department transported the victim to the University of Chicago Hospital, where he was listed in serious condition.
- Police closed the 69th Street station to preserve a platform crime scene as part of the investigation.
- A southbound Red Line train was removed from service and moved to the 95th Street yard so evidence technicians could process a second crime scene inside a rail car.
- No arrests or suspect description were released, and a witness said the assailant fled by boarding a northbound train; a day earlier, a 37-year-old man was found fatally stabbed on a Blue Line train at Clark-Lake.
