The Chicago gang of two teenage boys and two adult women for a yet to be explained reason, kidnapped and tortured the special-needs man while streaming entire ordeal live on Facebook and screaming racist and anti-Trump remarks.
Accoding to Chicago Police Department Commander, Kevin Duffin.The victim in Tuesday’s attack, is a resident of suburban Crystal Lake and was acquainted with one of the suspects from school.
The disturbing 30-minute video shows the victim tied up and his mouth covered, cowering in the corner of a room. His attackers laugh and shout “f*ck Donald Trump” and “f*ck white people” as they kick and punch him.
The video shows someone cutting into his scalp with a knife, leaving a visibly bald patch.
The footage shows his scalp bleeding and the attackers slashing his clothes. He was also repeatedly slapped and cigarette ashes were thrown at him.

“F–k Donald Trump, n—a, f–k white people!” one of the suspects can be heard telling the man in the video, which was livestreaming for roughly 30 minutes.
“I should knock your a– the f–k out right now,” he says. “Stand up, boy!”
“My sister said this is not funny, y’all,” says the girl behind the camera, who can be seen puffing on a cigar and laughing as the mayhem unfolds.
“S–t, it’s funny to me,” one of the suspects replies. “Tell Donald Trump it’s not funny.”

Commenting on the man’s wounds, one person can be heard saying, “Your s–t is leaking.”
Another tells the man, “Kiss the floor, b—h!” and “Nobody can help you anymore.”
The members of the gang can also be heard repeatedly saying the word “gang”.
Later in the video, someone urges the man to say, “I love black people.”
No charges have been filed yet against the suspects who are being questioned by police .
The victim, whose identity has not been disclosed, reportedly, is a Chicago resident living in the northwest suburb of Crystal Lake. The special needs man had been reported missing by his parents on Monday, because they had not heard from him since dropping him off at a McDonald’s in the Chicago suburb of Streamwood, Saturday.
He reportedly went to visit a friend and ended up in a stolen vehicle, which brought him to the Chicago apartment where the attack occurred.
Cops said that after reporting their son missing, his parents began getting text messages from someone “claiming to be holding him captive.”
Officers investigating the texts “discovered a Facebook video depicting (the man) being verbally and physically abused.”
Cops said they had found him walking on a street on the West Side wearing shorts, and that he appeared disoriented.

Police said the victim might have been with the suspects for at least 24 hours.
“The video is reprehensible,” said Chicago police spokesman Anthony Guglielmi.
Police have not identified the person who made the call.
The identities of the victim and suspects have not been released. The victim was taken to a hospital for treatment, but has since been discharged.
