A Vietnam War veteran died of a heart attack in Chicago after attempted carjackers beat him in broad daylight. You didn’t even get his car when you took his life," said the victim’s son-in-law, Curtis Carlton. They then repeatedly punched him in the head, police said, as witnesses stepped in to try to stop the attack. Cooper died just days before his 74th birthday and leaves behind a legacy of surviving two Vietnam War combat tours while in the Marine Corps. The crime has spilled over into 2021, with one particularly violent 24-hour span last month seeing at least five carjackings.
