Police Shooting
Another one, but this one stayed under the radar for almost 24 hours:
- An investigation is underway into a shooting involving a Chicago police officer that left a man wounded in the Hermosa neighborhood Thursday night, officials said tonight.
At about 8:30 p.m. Thursday, police responded to a call of shots fired in an alley on the 2200 block of North Keystone Avenue, police said. When they arrived officers noticed a car running with the motor running and with shell casings on the ground, police said.
They noticed a door to a nearby garage was open and saw a man crouching inside, police said.
When an officer entered the garage and announced that he was police, a man lunged at the officer while holding a shiny metallic object in his hand, police said. The officer fired his weapon and struck the man, police said.
Cops are all OK.

You went home alive and unharmed! That's the way it should be done.
Good job PN!!! Don't let anyone tell you otherwise..there will always be those Monday night quarterbacks....what matters is you went home safe!!
What is with that goofball captain on the third watch in 025? What an embarrassment you are! Retire already!!
When your " in fear of imminent death or grievous bodily " you do what ya' gotta do.
Happy to hear Officers ok & went home safely.
The FOP should look into the broadcast of this job. It was not put out over the citywide until sometime later. This could mean life or death in these circumstances to us police officers. Most of the dispatchers down at OEMC are against us. They should go back to hiring retired P.O.'s as dispatchers!
I was on scene. Nice job by the officer!!! You did what you had to and did it right!!!!!
Great job officer!!!
You & your partner are safe - that's all that matters!

Who is our biggest enemy? OURSELVES! Too many Monday morning quarterbacks. If you weren't there, then you don't know shit and so shut the fuck up.
There were retired PO's at OEMC working as dispatchers til 2005. Then the city decided to let them go. They figured they could hire 2 civilians for the price of 1 retired PO. That way there were about 50 jobs to be filled with ward hacks.
