Activists urging gangs to end violence, robberies against essential workers
CHICAGO (CBS) -- A group of local activists is asking gangs to stop shooting and robbing essential workers like UPS drivers and postal carriers.
A group of community leaders are joining Violence Interrupters Thursday morning to speak about the incidents.
It comes after a 32-year-old UPS driver was grazed by a bullet Tuesday while delivering packages in Humboldt Park at Trumbull and Chicago.
He is recovering.
Some community members are concerned they won't get deliveries because of safety concerns.
