Two Cops Shot - "Not Life Threatening"

  • Two Chicago police officers were shot late Monday and a third person wounded in the West Garfield Park neighborhood, authorities said.

    The shooting occurred at about 10:45 p.m. near the intersection of Gladys and Karlov avenues, police said, citing preliminary information.

    Both officers suffered non life threatening wounds, officials said. A third man suffered a gunshot wound to the head, officials said. His role in the shooting wasn't immediately known.

No word if the wounded person was the intended target or the offender.

UPDATE: Depending on the veracity of the post directly below this one, this may be the sixth shooting in under 72 hours involving the police. Be very very careful out there. No relief in sight from the heat. Or the assholes.

Best wishes for a speedy recovery for the officers.

UPDATE: Ongoing manhunt according to Shaved. His top comment section has a play by play of the past hour or so.

GOD BLESS THESE OFFICERS!

O.T.

But we have more cops right?

Check out McCarthy stepping up to protect Emmanuel and shoving one of the Reverends out of the way who was pleading for more police presence during a press conference yesterday. Did McCarthy commit a battery on camera?

I'm always amazed at the 'not life-threatening' comment. Hot lead has torn through a police officer's flesh. Why is no one shocked, sickened, aghast, infuriated?

What a lost society we have become.

no holes in them, just graze wounds.. And im not using the term "just graze wounds" to sound like a jag. Im only saying it because god forbid this could have been so much worse, especially since one of the graze wounds was to the head of the officer. get well soon officers and Im glad that you both will be ok... I know this isnt the department of old, but I sure hope somebody on scene is getting a couple of guys together to get some shit done without fear of lawsuits and cr numbers. I really hope its just not coppers standing around the crime scene with the hands in the vest. Turn that Mutafucka upside down. Make every asshole in that district wish they lived in 015 instead of 011 for the next couple of weeks... Yes, I know people...its not worth it but im sure to the two officers who were shot and almost killed it is worth it to them....

No one is afraid of the police at all. Especially in the minority areas of the city. No wonder. Politicians, supposed reverends, and "community leaders" constantly talk shit about the police and how they operate. This city is a complete and total mess. Daley gutted this department over 22 years and it will never go back to where it should be. Of course he isn't worried....His wife and Da Mayor have their own city paid protection for life. Free cars and ....FREE GAS! Just think about that when you are gassing up next time at the pump.

So this is why the crack-berry kept going off?

Firstly...

Thank God The Officers Are OK!

Secondly...

When are Stubby & G-Mac going to realize that there has been a war declared on The Police and their resolute bullshitting in regard to the manpower shortage IS NOT HELPING THINGS AT ALL!

The big problem as we see it is that the cynical media campaign ordered and orchestrated by RMD casting The Police as the enemies of the public (and a public that is all too willing to believe such) was done in order to separate The Police from the good will of the public.

This made it easier to facilitate destroying CPD without public outcry and outrage.

The rallying cry of "those Cops are outta control" was the perfect distractor from the ongoing carnage on the streets.

Heh... We surely owe the public a debt of gratitude. No one of note spoke out against this. Then again when The Police started sounding the alarm as to what was going on, it was dismissed as "complaining."

So very good to know how the public views the men & women tasked with keeping scary shit that likes to go bump in the night away from the door.

Thank you... You're reaping the harvest of your own damning silence.

The REALLY BIG ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM is that in spite of being destroyed through attrition, media manipulation and the majority in general whole-heartedly wishing a pox on our houses just because we wear a blue suit of clothes; CPD has mounted an AWE INSPIRING REAR GUARD and DEFENSE IN THE FACE OF DRASTIC & DISASTEROUS REDUCTION OF MANPOWER!

The powers that be, are lying, spinning, gyrating, bumping their gums & revolving their dentures because they haven't figured out a way to conveniently package the truth to suit their ends without having to feel the pain of the public righteously fumigating the fuck out of these self-interested political tics.

CPD is likely a victim of it's own success in fighting such a spirited delaying action which enables the past and current administrations to carry 13.5K Officers on the books when in actuality there are 8.5k to 9k.

You think they aren't happy to pocket the difference?

You think they aren't trying to reduce head count to the detriment of Officer Safety and the safety of the public just to see how low they can drive staffing?

Heh... It's The Police who are the enemy?

Stay Safe Officers!

Wishing a full recovery to the injured P.O's.

Happy Hunting to the coppers looking for these dirty muthafuckahs who injured our comrades!

We reckon 9.5 has already given marching orders to the decaying alive anal-whore local media not to connect the dots regarding these fools shooting at The Police.

Battery to P.O's are WAY UP but crime is down?

More Policemen being injured on duty by these mutts emboldened by the media propaganda campaign of "The Police are the enemy."

It seems the enemies of The Police have made themselves bedfellows of a peculiar sort here in Chicago.

They'll line the streets and cheer when the last "out of control" cops are rounded up and marched off to the gulags...

Not.

To both officers, Godspeed in your healing...take time to mend and to embrace those you love and who love you. And know that citizens here do appreciate your sacrifice, we get it.

Appropriately, "Two Chicago police officers shot" has been lead story on every local TV station starting before dawn this morning.

SCC-I can recall years ago, before you began challenging/shaming local media, our cops being shot would have been swept under carpet by Chicago mayor/media-maybe have been 3rd, 4th or 5th in "importance". Thanks for your persistent efforts to "influence" media into giving increasing weight to the attacks on Chicago police officers-at least as far as CPD being targets of career criminals-drug dealers et al, roaming scot free in this city.

When leaders convey a lack of respect to law enforcement it translates into this. Criminals think nothing will happen when they shot at police. Infact they batter police all the time, and little or nothing happens in court.

It was great show of support from all who showed up and helped out; from the units securing the scene and perimeter, to the officers from the responding districts that jumped in and starting answering jobs on the zone. Cars from 010, 015, 025, 014, 013, 012, all did a great job.

What else did you want him to do? How the fuck do you practice that?
