(Gateway Pundit) – Neil McCarthy, a British military combat veteran of Afghanistan visiting Chicago’s Oak Street Beach with his American girlfriend, was confronted by three muggers Saturday night. After giving the muggers what his wallet and cellphone, McCarthy decided it was too much when one of the muggers started ‘searching’ his girlfriend after she gave up her credit cards. He attacked the mugger prompting another mugger to jump him. McCarthy put him in a headlock but the mugger stabbed him in the shoulder. McCarthy grabbed the knife by the blade and took it way from the mugger. The three muggers then fled as McCarthy wielded the knife in self-defense.
But McCarthy wasn’t done with the muggers. As police arrived his girlfriend tracked his stolen cellphone with an app. It pinged to being nearby so the McCarthy dashed off to find it. He found one of the muggers, put him in a headlock and then dragged him to an arriving police car.

Two of the three alleged muggers were arraigned Monday. Noe Mondragon, 22, and Luis Salgado-Camargo, 18, are being held on $950,000 and $500,000 bail, respectively, reported the Chicago Tribune. Both men have criminal records. A third unnamed suspect is still being sought.
McCarthy, 27, and his girlfriend Carisa Lerner, 26, were visiting from Minneapolis where McCarthy is studying at the University of Minnesota. The muggers got his passport and student visa which he was not able to get back Saturday night. He’s hoping a good Samaritan will find and return them to him.

Wait, cook county president prickwrinkle says there are too many black and brown people in jail. If there are too many, then there can’t be any left to commit all these violent crimes. It’s a shame the victims weren’t armed, putting these two into the dirt would have improved society by two. Are they illegal aliens by any chance? In some states 30% of the homicides are committed by illegal aliens. Time for a change in this country, I can’t afford or survive Obama’s change.

Ballsy scumbags for tackling a healthy kid like him. They got off easy.
You couldn’t pay me to go up to Chicago before Illinois got concealed carry.
Now, you could pay me, but it’s going to cost you.

Are those mug shots from the 80s?
They’re a little behind in hairstyles in Mexico.
What happened to the good old days when we deported illegals when we found them, often at gunpoint?
We didn’t have illegals killing, raping, robbing and knifing Americans back then.

Is this the sort of diversity Democrats want?
