CHINATOWN — Police are investigating three street robberies they say may be related.

The incidents took place in a four-day stretch in late October. They include an Oct. 21 robbery in the 2200 block of South Princeton Avenue that took place about 11:55 p.m., and a pair of Oct. 24 robberies, first about 5 a.m. in the 200 block of West Cermak Road and then at 10 p.m. in the 2100 block of South China Place, police said.

In each incident, victims were mugged by up to three men ranging in age from 20 to 34 years old.  Investigators would not say what types of items were taken during the robberies.

No injuries were reported.

Anyone with information is asked to call (312) 747-8380.
