The victim, who appears to be unsteady on his feet in the early Chicago morning, tries to grab his items back, but loses his balance and sits back down on the transit car bench.
Unprovoked, the mugger in the ski mask picks the wine bottle off the floor and brings it down on the man's head as witnesses in the nearly empty car cry out in shock.
'Oh, my Gooooood,' one witness screams.
