Two migrants are charged with robbery after a shoplifting mob stole cases of beer from a Streeterville convenience store

On June 9, 2024, a group of people, including two migrants, entered a 7-Eleven convenience store in Chicago's Streeterville neighborhood and stole cases of beer. The migrants, identified as Adrian Jose Ruiz Sosa and Kent Abed Minaya Munoz, were charged with robbery in connection with the incident. According to the Chicago Police Department, the group entered the store around 5:45 p.m. and began collecting cases of beer. When two female store employees tried to block their exit, members of the group physically assaulted them. The employees, aged 48 and 26, were pushed and punched, and a case of beer was thrown at one of them to get them away from the exit. Chicago police officers located Ruiz Sosa and Minaya Munoz nearby with some of the stolen beer. Ruiz Sosa was on pretrial release at the time of the robbery for allegedly shoplifting gym shoes and slides from the Nordstrom Rack at 24 North State. Minaya Munoz had been charged with shoplifting from the Macy's on State Street in April, but the case was dropped on May 30. Ruiz Sosa listed the shelter at 344 North Ogden as his home address, while Minaya Munoz's address was the Standard Club shelter at 320 South Plymouth. 17GEN4.com
