Officers OK, Offender Wounded
Behind the curve on this one as we were quite busy all day. Channel 7 and the Sun Times provide the coverage. Story is sort of amusing actually:
Spokesperson Pat Camden told ABC7 News that when the officers got out of the car they took cover, they announced who they were and told the suspect to drop the gun.
"The individual turns, keeping shooting down the block. He turned with the gun. At the officers at this point. They fire and in defense of their lives. The subject is hit I believe twice in the leg," Camden said.
Seems to us that the subject may have been deafened by the sound of his own gunshots and didn't hear the police announce their presence behind him (from cover - very wise move) and he kept shooting down the block even after the cops said they were behind him. Too bad for the knucklehead. Good job guys.

Nice Job Guys, Glad your safe.
DEAR SCC
Thank you for the great blog, and for keeping us posted on the condition of officers on here.
P.s. We can use a morale boost. Any new Hiney photos come in?????
Hitney. It's been a long day
Does anybody have the funeral information for "Northside". If they can post it here I am sure many will like to have the info.
Thanks.

Man Killed On Red Line Tracks
Victim Apparently Intoxicated
(CBS) CHICAGO An unidentified retired Chciago Police Officer was killed early Saturday when he fell onto the tracks at a downtown subway station and contacted the third rail.
At about 1:40 a.m., the CTA was notified "that a customer was on the right-of-way at Harrison," said CTA spokeswoman Kim Myles.
The man, believed to be about 68 years old, according to police, apparently was intoxicated and fell onto the third rail at the Harrison station. The victim was pronounced dead at 4:15 a.m. at the Stein Institute, according to the Cook County medical examiner's office.
Myles said no train was involved in the incident and that Chicago police were investigating early Saturday to determine exactly what happened.
Red Line trains were re-routed over the elevated tracks downtown after the incident, Myles said. By 3:11 a.m. both northbound and southbound Red Line trains had resumed use of the subway tracks.

I have a question?
Why do we need Pat Camden,
or any other political hack ?
Why can't the Sgt's or above handle the ??????'s on the scene?
Sorry Guys, but I would rather have an experienced media man and
former copper like Pat Camden handling the media for a cop shooting than most supervisors out there. If you are not trained and prepared for some of the crap these media creatures will throw at you, you could easily embarrass yourself, and the rest of us. Camden does a great job, and I've even seen him get together with reporters and tell them what nonsense NOT to pull when the cameras go on. Trust me, you'd rather he was there to answer questions or give statements on some of our more questionable shootings/major incidents than anyone else.

This blog is really getting pathetic. Fellow officers involved in a shooting and you clowns can only spout off about your gay fantasies and inherent jealousy of other copppers. I can only wonder if you spend your tour thinking what you can come up with every night to post on here or if you dream it up at Cullinans or Dugans or some other lame copper hangout while some more intelligent fella is pounding the snot out of your wives while you giggle over your miller lite you got for a dollar. Anyways, nice job officers glad your safe.
Man, ain't that the truth. I'm this close to just deleting the entire SCC blog from my computer. What started out as something that had the potential to be an informative useful tool for the rank and file has turned into nothing more than a bathroom wall, a tool for the misfits. What a shame.
they are retarded and can't help it. Glad you guys are safe nice shoot.
Hey 02:21
Why don't you stop posting that shit about NORHTSIDE. They said it was a 25 year old you JAGOFF .Don't you have anything better to do . LOOSER !!!!!!!

I AGREE ALL YOU HEAR IS THOSE GUYS WITH THEIRS 18 DIGIT BEAT NUMBER ON THE ZONES THEY ARE ALL OVER AND ALWAYS WILLING TO STOP AND HELP ANYONE OUT WITH ANYTHING I'VE EVEN HEARD THEM DO REPORTS FOR BEAT CARS HELD DOWN ON OTHER STUFF
FIND A PLAIN CLOSE HARDASS THAT WILL DO THAT?
go bears
Unit 151 is traffic enforcement. Is this the same Austin that writes cops and DUIs them??????????? Is this the same Austin that gets Cr#s on his fellow patrolman and Captains because they did not do what he wantd them to do????????? HMMMMMMMMMMM. The same Austin who when he was dumped to 024 snivelled and simpered everytime he had to work the north end because he was afraid he would get hurt? The same Austin who would never, ever respond to an officer calling for help or a 10-1? The same Austin who thinks that the rules only apply to others and not him? Inquiring minds want to know.
I agree with 0640. A/1 Midnight Gang Team works their asses off and they are always willing to help out. Great job guys.

Just read another part of the Slum- Times report about the Donoghue School where they mix "VOUCHER HOLDER" childrens with liberal kids. Quoted child Empress Howard as saying, "We talked about how if you be mean peoples be mean back to you." Do they teach helping verbs such as "ARE" and "WILL" in this fuclin' school? maybe they be teaching ebonics. I just be a motha fuckin fool cause ise is motha fucka

You really are obsessed with jealousy of Northside.
Even though he's retired, his blood still runs true BLUE. Ask D. Holloway or M.C. how he bailed them out of solo 10-1s before help could arrive.
He already bought a ticket for the benefit for Bryan Vander Mey.
This one goes out to all you Fucken Idiots that attempt to screw with Northside. You all might as well give up now because he's not thin skined and he can take all the bullshit you assholes dish out. So why don't you grow up and take your crayons and color some pictures in your spare time which you seem to have a lot of.
You had me but now you lost me. I am so done Ole, punany, etc. SCC obviously cannot monitor the site like it should be. Therefore, I need to take a break. It used to be informative and in fact, it could be a great site. I'm sure I will be told to f-off.
Anyone hear if the "merit" requests are coming out this week? I know it's like beating a dead horse, but someone's got to know.
If you gotta ask, then you won't be "meritorious". Those folks already know.

If that is Rich Austin, he is a stroke. Has a better than thou attitude and doesn't feel he owes or needs anyone else on this job.
If he was ever to do anything else other than traffic and called for help, I would go...However, nothing says I have to jump in right away... Surprised his car hasn't spontaneuosly combusted yet.
Stop me and spout that "when requested to do so you must surrender your driver's license to law enforcement official" and see what happens.....There are other ways to get you too...

Hey you suppose HDO played any part with LT. JC and the Sandbagging.
Is this the same Austin that former Traffic Enforcement LT. J.C. and full duty stat PO Madig__. tried to sandbag on stats thus getting him dumped. Is this the same Austin that won the contract violation over the dump because of the sandbag. Inquiring minds already know your a dis-service to all PO's and as independent thinkers we would have to say. "Your not happy you were unable to f&ck over the Officer!" The Office proved the sandbagging brick and won the arbitration. All due to your continual like attack games which never end. Oh yeah by the way again, the jobs legit.
DO US ALL A FAVOR HDO TAKE A WALK! While your walking, take that low life playmate. "I play the police" and I run 18-22nd st. you need parkin boss see me Henry the drunken civilian Data Entry operator King of Frt Dsk Henry Vir. along with you in your neighboring cubicles of MAIU.

The computer setup interferes with the ignition, the shifter, and not to mention your knees (that is if you are over 6'0 tall).
all the room is on the rear where shithead has leg room and molded plastc seating. Is it too much to ask to have enough room to drive effectively, exit quickly, sit comfortably?

Question of importance: Do you think Pat Camden has tan lines ?
Cowboy is smokin rock
Camden Has His head up is Asset he needs to know whats going on before he speaks.
Pat has what is called a "Slingshot" tan line. It is a little pair of undies that looks like a Crown Royal Sack that goes over the manmeat and then the rest is just a g-string.
He looks hot with that slingshot suit on!

I was there when IAD took the contents of the lockers. It was only just over $80,000.00, in bundles of $1000.00 with rubber bands around it. Those married guys paid big money to avoid being busted with a male whore. a few thousand isn't anything to avoid a 6 figure divorce.
while surfing found this interesting POST on a BLACK BLOG SITE:
Why is it that so many Blacks attempt to justify the mayhem that is running rampant in our neighborhoods by stating that others racial groups are doing the same??? I'll make this easy,
In Chicago alone, show me where White People are subjected to same "White on White" criminalities that exsist in Black Communities. Explain to me why Whites aren't shooting, maiming each other on a daily basic in Chicago?
Show me what area of "WHITE" Chicago, where the residences are so intimidated by their "own" that they can't venture to and fro on their on accord.
Why, when there is a legitimate question of racial injustice, it will always trump all the idiotic actions of Blacks misusing or abusing other Blacks.
As far as the Asians, Mexicans and any other cans, I could give less then a shyt! Some of us like hitching their waywards ideologies, defending those who gives less then a damn about you or the entire Black race of people. Example real simple: When was the last time you seen a Asian buying anything from a black own store???? It's like going to LEON's BBQ, and finding a line of Chineses waiting to buy rib tips, well you ain't going to see that!!!!!
Yes, J. Burge was and is a piece of fece!
Every person that he dealt with was not INNOCENT! This does not justified his or his men actions and behavior. But does it strike you funny, that no one has ever mention the VICTIMS or the families, that these bastards destroyed. No, of course not, its all about some low life and his/her rights and ONLY because what happen to them, was done by someone "WHITE"
This ain't about justice, this is about some bogus ass racial oneupmanship, a thousand Blacks could die at the hands of other Blacks, but you let one "White" person do it, its time to march for 30 days, chant loudly as the media camera rolls, have all the righteous reverends and street corner activists smirk and shake their fists in a resounding chorus of "The White Man Did It"
As-salaam-a-lay-cum, my brother! That was right on the money. You are a truthteller to the "n.th"degree!
WRONG! ASSHOLE, YOU SHOULD WORSHIP THE GROUND BURGE WALKED ON...HE PAVED THE WAY FOR WHITE COPPERS TO RULE THE STREETS! ANYBODY WHO KNEW THE MAN WILL TELL YOU HE WAS AMARTYR FOR THE CAUSE...HE WAS AND IS PHENOMENAL!!!
Can you feel the pain that he is experiencing? what a crock of shit. So much disgust but no solutions. March my ass, this is not 1965. MARCH YOUR ASSES TO WORK
All that wit on a Public school education. search the web and I bet it's plagarized.
GOD BLESS JON BURGE!!!!
"Hey you suppose HDO played any part with LT. JC and the Sandbagging.

Austin and another guy got dumped for their behavior and their lack of common sense and judgement. They were and are a danger to themselves and others. Traffic is like any other specialized unit. You have to know some body or be invited to go their. They got back because their clout interfered on their behalf. The greivance procedure was just a smoke screen. The fix was in. They knew they were coming back. When was the last time you heard of FOP- who believe you need clout to get in a unit- ever help someone who got dumped. Never!!! They do not get involved.
They were returned the same way they got theire originally. The telephone call. Don't be surprised if they are also the first to be promoted meritoriously of the next sergeant's list.

you must be some sort of f-ing idiot! You should try to pull some of the shit that Burge pull and see how many people will step up and back your ass, as you are transferred into federal custody. A martyr, rule the streets, this apparently is some sort of video game that you are playing
Why would you even try to do a "Burge" on someone? It's obvious on here that there is no honor among Policemen. Talkin shit and dropping names. In a matter of minutes the story would be all over the district, and city. It's a pathetic thing to have complete distrust for other coppers. The shitheads protect each other better than we do.
You wanna burge someone, go ahead, but remember in this day and age there are no secrets.
GUN CONTROL - JUST THE FACTS
GUN CONTROL:
In 1929, the Soviet Union established gun control. From 1929 to 1953, about 20 million dissidents, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
------------------------------
In 1911, Turkey established gun control. From 1915 to 1917, 1.5 million Armenians, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
---------------------------
Germany established gun control in 1938 and from 1939 to 1945, a total of 13 million Jews and others who were unable to defend themselves were rounded up and exterminated.
------------------------------
China established gun control in 1935. From 1948 to 1952, 20 million political dissidents, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
----------------------------
Guatemala established gun control in 1964. From 1964 to 1981, 100,000
Mayan Indians, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
------------------------------
Uganda established gun control in 1970. From 1971 to 1979, 300,000 Christians, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
------------------------------
Cambodia established gun control in 1956. From 1975 to 1977, one million educated' people, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
---------------------------
Defenseless people rounded up and exterminated in the 20th Century because of gun control: 56 million.
------------------------------
It has now been 12 months since gun owners in Australia were forced by new law to surrender 640,381 personal firearms to be destroyed by their own government, a program costing Australia taxpayers more than $500 million dollars. The first year results are now in:
* Australia-wide, homicides are up 3.2 percent
* Australia-wide, assaults are up 8.6 percent
* Australia-wide, armed robberies are up 44 percent (yes, 44 percent)!
* In the state of Victoria alone, homicides with firearms are now up 300 percent. (Note that while the law-abiding citizens turned them in, the criminals did not, and criminals still possess their guns!)
While figures over the previous 25 years showed a steady decrease in armed robbery with firearms, this has changed drastically upward in the past 12 months, since criminals now are guaranteed that their prey is unarmed.
There has also been a dramatic increase in break-ins and assaults of the elderly. Australian politicians are at a loss to explain how public safety has decreased, after such monumental effort and expense was expended in successfully ridding Australian society of guns. The Australian experience and the other historical facts above prove it.
You won't see this data on the American evening news or hear our president, governors or other politicians disseminating this information.
Guns in the hands of honest citizens save lives and property and, yes, gun-control laws affect only the law-abiding citizens.
Take note my fellow Americans.....before it's too late!
The next time someone talks in favor of gun control, please remind them of this history lesson.
With guns, we are 'citizens'.
Without them, we are 'victims'.
ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ!
Molon labe!!!!(mo-lone lah-veh) Two little words. With these two words, two concepts were verbalized that have lived for nearly two and a half Millennia. They signify and characterize both the heart of the Warrior, and the indomitable spirit of mankind. From the ancient Greek, they are the reply of the Spartan General-King Leonidas to Xerxes, the Persian Emperor who came with 600,000 of the fiercest fighting troops in the world to conquer and invade little Greece, then the center and birthplace of civilization as we know it. When Xerxes offered to spare the lives of Leonidas, his 300 personal bodyguards and a handful of Thebans and others who volunteered to defend their country, if they would lay down their arms, Leonidas shouted these two words back.They mean, “Come and get them!” They live on today as the most notable quote in military history.

GUN CONTROL - JUST THE FACTS"
Most people, even pro gun advocates have never studied history, especially the history of the Bill of Rights. The Bill of Rights was an after thought to the US Constitution. The Founding Fathers decided that the people needed protection from the government it self. The Second Amendment was placed there to not only protect the people from the government, but to protect the constitution itself.
Historically, gun control was not implemented to protect the citizens. It was to protect the government from the people. Modern gun control, post 1968, came about not as the result of violent crime, but as a result of assasinations- JFK and MLK.
Those who advocate gun control practice theart of the BIG Lie.
A lesson in how things work.
During the sixties and early seventies the Knapp Commission was investigating the NYPD for massive corruption. Everything from taking a free meal to protecting organized crime and dope dealers.
During the investigation they went into a division. The whole division was ordered to be there- patrolman, detectives, bosses, etc. The Knapp Commission asked if any police officer was corrupt and for them to come forward and testify at a later date. They would be given immunity and be protected.
If any officer refused or was discovered later, they would be prosecuted. The commissioner then asked again for anyone to come forward. The WHOLE division stood up!! The Whole division admitted to being corrupt. The Knapp Commission walked out. It would be impossible to arrest and indict a whole divison of the NYPD.
Lesson learned, if we all stood up for each other, we would be powerful and win. No one could touch us. They would not even think of firing mass numbers of us.
