Another Shooting

  • An off-duty Chicago police officer shot a man armed with a knife early this morning on the North Side, police said.

    The shooting occurred about 1:30 a.m. outside a residence in the 5100 block of North Bernard Street in the North Park neighborhood, said Mark Payne, a spokesman for the Independent Police Review Authority, which investigates shootings involving Chicago officers.

    The 20-year-old man was taken to Advocate Illinois Masonic Medical Center in critical condition, said Eve Rodriguez, a Chicago Fire Department spokeswoman. She said preliminary reports showed that eight shots were fired, but it wasn't known how many hit the man.

The ammo is free and we're trained to shoot until said threat is neutralized. Officer is unharmed and that's all that counts.

Officer unharmed...God Bless for that. I hope we can all say that after election night.

SLIGHTLY OFF THIS TOPIC BUT NEEDS TO BE ACTED ON QUICKLY...


IDEA, as long as there is going to be cameras everywhere that day and night why shouldn't wehave a few of our own there.

I suggest that the FOP (and PB&PA if possible) get some digital camcorders and go down to the areas and show how poorly prepared the city is to handle the crowds that Richie has invited to come down.

A recipe for disaster, a million people, no toilets, no water, hundreds of cops, no toilets, no water, traffic gridlocked, gangbangers looking for targets.

They should show there areas before the crowd gathers and what could be reasonably expected to happen here. When the shit hits the fan we would have our own record. Back at the office, they should record the radio traffic on City-wide 5, and some of the other Zones where we expect trouble.

The FOP Reps should wear body armor, helmets and jackets that say FOP. Our people should be clued in to assist and protect them.

They should interview P.O.s were you told where to go for water, or what facilities were provided and attempt to interview exempt bosses they find. If the bosses want to know who they are and why they are doing this get there name and tell them to follow the rules on a First Amendment Investigation.

We have been warning not to raise clubs, and be careful as there will be many innocent (though stupid for being there and voting Democrat) in that crowd of chaos. If our people are injured show that, if the crowd is throwing bottles show that, other wise all that will ever be seen is the Obama love fest and the bad police. This might be something to put on Youtube.com to make us look like heros and Richie look like what he is.

This could build a case for gross negligence by the city, not the police and there will be lawsuits.

Ray Bam Bam Wilke recently took a 15 day suspension for something that occured in 1999. While Ray may be goofy he has a heart of Gold and would help anyone he has ever met. No one other than Ray and possibly the other officers involved know the true story of what really occured but I can tell you Ray said it was for a disorderly conduct arrest. The Benifit is at Bourban Street on 06 November 08 at 2300hrs tickets are $25.00. This is for real. Like I said no matter what you think of Ray at work he does have heart of Gold and would help anyone he could. Lets have a big showing and help Ray out I know he will need the Money, and maybe it will help him realize it doesnt matter if you make great arrests or how hard you work this department will throw you under the bus. Good luck Ray and Best wishes. Stay safe

Off Topic, but just had a thought.

With all crowd that Shortshanks has invited down there, no ticket no problem, what if, the gangbangers do some shooting, the panic spreads, more shooting more chaos, BEFORE the Messiah makes his victory speech. What if the S.S. bodyguards decide that it is too dangerous and pull him from the venue and take him home.

Then the people inside, and outside will be pissed.

SHORTSHANKS WILL BE ________.
The Messiah will think, he has served his purpose and will be a liability in the future. I want another Harold Washington in his place.

AND THE WHOLE WORLD WILL BE WATCHING.

Too bad concealed/open carry is not permitted by ordinary, peaceable citizens. The bad guys carry, whether banned or not. Police officers should carry even when off duty, while cutting the lawn, or when traveling out of state.

Hey SCC,

good post on the shooting,

but 8 shots and the guy is still alive? I would bet its a 9mm, since the 92fs is a standard weapon for the CPD.

For the future, if you can post more gun details, that would be great!

Off Topic.....About a week ago, I read a post on here regarding a 1st Watch lockup keeper in 011 by the name of Birl Madden. Well this week on Tuesday, I got to experience him myself. Po Madden began insulting me because my arrest was a "cheap dope arrest." He went on to yell at me and told me I was an "oppressor" he was totally trying to coax me into a physical altercation. Well after my boiling blood cooled down, I did some research and found out that Po Madden is 61 years old knows he will have to go soon. He has been telling numerous people how he wants a lawsuit against a PO or Supervisor to help finance his retirement. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, BE VERY CAUTIOUS WHEN ENCOUNTERING THIS IDIOT AND IF HE ATTEMPTS TO RIDICULE OR COAX YOU INTO AN ALTERCATION, INFORM THE WATCH COMMANDER IMMEDIATELY....IT IS THE ONLY WAY TO PROTECT YOURSELF!

5100 Bernard is not too far away from my home

Ive noticed at least twice gatherings of shit heads in the park just west of Central Park and south of Foster Ave

Im a retired PO and I like to ride my bicycle throug this park on nicer days

Maybe someone from Stalag 017 could provide a little aggressive /preventative patrol over there

Another reitree lives close to that address as well

be safe out there biys and girls

Carry off duty

If youre an automatic shooter and the boat anchor service gun is too large buy a smaller one

The Glock 10 shot 40 is a very nice weapon
Smith makes a small 40 as well
at least get an airweight 5 shot.

Ruger makes a great .380 auto. I know its a violation of gen orders
but its better than nothing.

7 shots of 380 (9mm short)and fits in the palm of your hand.

Great back up gun for duty as well.
Its only a day or two off and thats if you get caught.

You only get caught if you use it.
And you'd only use it if you're in grave danger.

Anyway I found my apostrophe key.

Stay safe out there
Thanks for your service
