The answer is maybe. There is no strict liability in these kinds of cases but if you can show that the CTA was negligent in some way by failing to secure the safety of its passengers, then the CTA may be found liable for your injuries. The details and circumstances of the robbery and your injuries would be determinative. If you would like to give me more details and discuss this further, please contact my office.
