Louis Gunartt Jr., 61, allegedly stabbed a 44-year-old man on Aug. 17 in the 3800 block of West Roosevelt Road, according to police. Gunartt, of Chicago, was arrested Tuesday and charged with aggravated battery/use of a deadly weapon and first-degree attempted murder, both felonies.

"This is disheartening to me that something like this could take place with such casualness," said Loyola University Chicago professor of criminology Arthur Lurigio.

Derrick Weathers, 53, and Lemar Hollingsworth, 21, were both charged with theft, and Weathers also faced a felony drug charge, Chicago police said.

It was a scene that unfolded live on television as dozens of people rushed a railyard in Chicago’s Austin neighborhood, stealing items from a parked freight train.
