Dog Dies in Alley
A man apparently trying to break into the home of a police officer was shot and killed by the officer in the Grand Crossing neighborhood tonight, police said.
The shooting happened about 6:40 p.m., authorities said. The officer, who was off-duty, was upstairs in the apartment building [...] when he heard loud noises coming from the first floor of the building, said Calumet Area Deputy Chief [...], speaking at the scene.
The officer went downstairs to the rear door of the building, which police said and property records show the officer owns. When the officer opened it he saw a man with a tire iron standing on the rear porch, Alexander said. The officer drew his gun, identified himself and told the man to put the tire iron down, but instead the man swung it at the officer.
The officer fired several shots at the man, hitting him...
Nearby, a woman identifying herself as the dead man's mother stood by with several relatives. Sharon Loston said her son lived in the area and did odd jobs for the shop owners on 75th Street.
[...] "He didn't deserve to die like a dog in an alley," she said of her son, tearfully.

He didn't deserve to die like a dog in an alley....He also didn;t deserve to be in a house that he was not invited into. He also didn't deserve to swing a tire iron at another person.
Not on the job- Does the city reimburse the officer for the spent rounds used in stopping this felon, or is the officer out the dough? I wonder if the dufus thought the privately owned building had a flat?

The mother of this thug said that "he didn't deserve to die like some dog in an alley" or something to that effect.
I suggest that she should have kept her "dog" in the house, and away from other people's "alleys."
too bad momma didn't come along for the ride, it would have been a 2-fer.... fuck momma.....
ARM YOURSELVES GOOD CITIZENS!!!!
Yes....he did
Can't wait for the surpreme court decision...
I’m going to have to take exception with poor grieving Willamena and say that most dogs who don’t die peacefully all on their own are probably euthanized by a Veterinarian. It’s just not common practice for owners to drag sick dogs into the ally and shoot them. Why, even those nasty unwanted rodents are humanely dispatched with poisons these days. So I’d say he died far worse then a dog, or even a rat for that matter.
And he deserved it too.

The instant that officer drew his weapon and shouted "STOP, POLICE OFFICER" he was on duty and can put in a slip for the time.
Dog is as dog does.
Why would any copper live in that shit neighborhood?
Thank GOD the officer is ok, and another pos is dead! No loss to anyone, the copper probably saved the citizens lots of money and anguish. You break into anyones home/car etc... you deserve to be killed,sorry assholes that is the way it is!
Imagine it wasn't an off duty officer who was in fear for his life but an unarmed law abiding citizen,the way Daley and Weis wants everybody to be...the unarmed civilian would be dead of a beating.
Moral to the story is, keep your dog on a leash.
I don't see a problem with any of this.
One more shitbird off the public payroll.
If you are in my house, you are going to get drawn down on,,,,if you have a weapon in hand, you are going to get dropped right then and there, your ticket is cancelled.
Too bad Loevy & Loevy probably are preparing the lawsuit, including suing the city for some reason, at this moment.
Now, now: maybe he didn't deserve to die like a dog in an alley.
Maybe he really deserved to die like a felon, out front on the porch. Let's just be open to that possiblity.
Feel any better, Mom?

Yes, he did "odd jobs," like home invasions and burglaries.
Hey Momma, this city does have leash laws. You shouldn't have let that dog off the leash.
The only reason a homeowner in that situation should have to call the police is so someone can come and cart away the dead a**hole.
get the hint all you pieces of sh*t.....time to protect our own and ourselves...good job officer,would have done the same
I'm always amazed at how quickly the parent(s) are available for an interview after they lose a child. It says in the article that this lady lives in Riverdale now, yet she was there within minutes to get her TV time. I know if I would have been killed the last thing my parents would be doing is a TV interview.
I have a dog. When it comes his time, I hope it is nice and peaceful for him. Dogs deserve respect. This scumbag was no dog.
Definately a win for the good guys, but if the involved officer is who I think it is from my academy class then I gotta say...Outstanding job by the Area 2 Detectives.
Just another ignorant hoodrat exploited by the news
media
OT ~ There's another load of violence going on in Chicago, contrary to J-Fled's claim of a lessening trend...

DOGS HAVE MORE SENSE THAN THIS FOOL!PLEASE GIVE DOGS ALITTLE CREDIT HERE PEOPLE!!HE IS WHERE HE BELONGS..ON ICE!!!! C YA!
I'd piss on his corpse if I could.
Momma was nearby? Lookout? Driver of get away car? How freaking close are we talking and why?? Sounds fishy.
Shit-talker's holiday on the online comments in both rags...
Wahhh!!!! *SOB!* Boo-hoo!
"The (evil Po-leese) shot him 5 or 6 times, isn't that excessive force?"
"No Police officer should be allowed to be armed off duty."
"Why didn't he just shoot him in the knee... He didn't have to kill him."
These are the same fools who would be happy to read these headlines...

The online comments convince us that the majority of Chicagoans have lost their rabbit-ass minds when it comes to Police versus criminals. Most of these people are likely not "real" old school native born Chicagoans anyway. Mostly poseurs, transplants, false-flaggers and lefty crook lovers who cry when the POLICE take care of business and refuse to lay down and be victims.
The few remaining clear-eyed citizens are truly in danger.
Yup... sarcasm & silliness.
Ma-ma says "he even worked this weekend in a soup kitchen"....Should have stayed in the soup kitchen & NOT doing a Burglary!!!!! Great Job Office, Great Job!!!
Good.
More air for me.
Where's the 8th grade graduation picture and the play-autie hootin' and hollerin' about how he was an honor-role student and an upstanding member of society? I'm sure that's coming.
Momma was wrong actually.. The officer is not trained to approach skillfully and inject the offender in a vein with death inducing chemicals, thus effectively euthanizing an offender.. He was put in the stressful position of having to blow away a guy that wanted to peel his head off. But I think 4 legged dogs do deserve better deaths. Maybe someday

Sounds like he was sentenced to community service for something.
