Police are still looking for two women who have been robbing ride-share passengers since June in the River North and Lincoln Park neighborhoods.
In each incident, the suspects picked up the victims in a vehicle believed to be a ride-share before robbing them by force or at gunpoint, according to a community alert issued Thursday by Chicago police.
Police previously warned residents about the string of robberies spanning from June 24 to Aug. 12.
