Emanuel: Attack on son unmasked security 'blind spots' that must be addressed

The Chicago Sun-Times reports:
Mayor Rahm Emanuel said Monday his 17-year-old son was on his cellphone with a college counselor when he was attacked from behind by two unarmed men on the Ravenswood street where the mayor lives.

Emanuel was tight-lipped about the Dec. 19 mugging, except to say that it unmasked “blind spots” in security on his block that the Chicago Police Department needs to address.

“Zach is doing fine. I can’t say that about his parents. But, he’s doing fine. And that tells you something about the resilience of teenagers,” the mayor said.
What's the real story here?
