Only on the South Side

  • An off-duty police officer was sitting on his porch with his wife on South Leavett and West 90th when they saw a 30-year-old man break into a car. When the officer attempted to make an arrest, a short scuffle happened.

    The man allegedly threatened the officer, saying, ''I know where you live now and I'll come back and kill you.'' The suspect also threatened to injure the officer's wife.

    The suspect managed to break free and began running toward nearby woods, shedding clothing in the meantime. A police sergeant spotted the suspect at South Western and West 90th, and the man was apprehended.

    The suspect is facing charges of burglary and aggravated assault to a peace officer, the Morgan Park district desk sergeant said.

    As police were making the arrest at 1:13 a.m., a drunken motorist driving a 2004 Ford Escape plowed into a police car at the scene. The force of the impact caused that car to hit another squad car head-on, injuring a police sergeant.

    Among his charges, Paul Daniels, 26, of South Holland, was cited with two counts of driving under the influence. As police responded to that crash, a male driver told police his male passenger had been shot at South Western Avenue and West 79th Street.

That was truly a bad set of coincidence. Best wishes to the injured sergeant.

I sincerely hope that this asshole was also charged with Intimidation for making those threats to the PO and his wife. But then again, this is Cook County, so nothing suprises me anymore.

90th and Leavitt? I believe Alderman Rugai is only one block east of there. Not exactly a run down hood. Not many safe places left in this town.

It's like ghetto pinball. One dangerous fool after another colliding. Nice glimpse into the cesspool that has become Chicago.

Dashboard video from a January traffic stop in Hamilton, Montana, that ended in gunfire.

A jury ruled on April 13, 2010 that Hamilton Police Officer Ross Jessop was justified in shooting Raymond Thane Davis.

Good training video:

Sorry, but yes. Yes it is a run down hood. Classic case of folks living there, looking at their once pleasant neighborhood through emotional, rose-tinted glasses. Beverly and Mt. Greenwood were lost several years ago. Sorry!

WELL, when I sit on my porch in the Edison Park area I usually do it with a gun. No matter what neighborhood you need a gun to protect yourself from democratic voters who tend to wander.

This is why I only sit in the back yard and that's only occasionally. If I want to go out, I usually leave the city.

Residency should have been lifted 20yrs ago.. You can thank all of the old timers for not putting pressure on the city to lift it.

Actually, it is a beautiful neigborhood. Not many other family oriented places like it left.. if house going for over 500 grand are just rose tinted glasses then I guess I'll leave mine on. One of the reasons it is so nice a place to live in still is because the off-duties don't just look away. Big thanks to that off duty po.

Buy the new Ruger LCP, carry it all the time, and use it if necessary. If you're taking out the trash, moving the car, walking the dog, bullshitting with the neighbor across the fence, cleaning out the garage. Always be able to bring the rain.

Maybe 'cause the old timers actually had families; wives, kids in school, kids had friends too - not like the new guys who live 3 deep in Lincoln Park hip-dude apartments and drive all the too-cool cars .... just a thought

I live in 022. It's a great neighborhood. When we were younger, I used to sit on the front porch with a beer and watch the sunset when I could. Now, I sit on the front porch with a coke and my .38 S&W in a fanny pack with 2 quick loaders. I figure if I end up shooting some POS, I'm better offwith a coke than a beer. I'd do the same in 016 today. The bad guys get around. Having worked 015 and 011, I'll take Beverly any day. If you can afford to live in a $400,000 house and can behave like a human, glad to have you for a neighbor. When I retire in 5 years, I can't think of anywhere I'd rather live.
