North Side Shooting
- Chicago police shot a person they said pointed a weapon at officers late Monday in the city's Albany Park neighborhood on the Northwest Side.
No officers were injured in the shooting that happened just after 9 p.m. near the intersection of Central Park and Lawrence avenues.
Tactical unit officers with the Albany Park police district were conducting missions in the area when they heard gunshots and saw two people fleeing the area, police said in a brief formal statement.
The officers followed the two people, one of whom pulled a weapon, pointing it in the direction of the officers, police said. One of the officers pulled a handgun and opened fire, striking the person.
"One of the officers pulled a handgun and opened fire"? What kind of writing is this? It sounds like a gang shooting or something. How about "the officer drew his weapon and shot the assailant"?
Camden wasn't available for a statement so the Trib reporter writes this tripe?
So this is what? Forty-five shootings? With forty-four weapons recovered? Good to hear the police are OK. Nice job Officers.

don't worry earlier today the trib was talking about Rahm's food deserts and called it "food desserts"
Outstanding job 017! That's a bad corner anyway, glad the good guys are ok. Be safe, and remember, You are soldiers on the streets of chicago. Gangs on the street are NO DIFFERENT than the wars over seas, it's domestic terrorism!
The Trib editor should be ashamed for allowing that story to go out as written. "Officer pulled a handgun"? Gee I wonder if the writer has an agenda?
Now you know if it was here on the west side it would have read "dem boys wasnt doing nuffin when the slick boys rolled up up der gats and start busting caps..it just don't make no sense" on da real..you feel me?.
Good job officers glad to see you're safe. LIFM
there are no more 'reporters'.
only inarticulate hand puppets.
not to mention the dog
Hmmm nothing in the news about the dead body found in the dumpster over in 12.
Glad that Pat got the best justice he could have gotten after the lame ass jury was split on the attempted murder charge. What a shame that is...Can anyone on the CPD get a jury of their peers in Cook County? I mean, really?
Then when 017 chases some other people involved in incident, they run into a house and let dogs out on Police. PO with M4 wins over offender with pitbull. Nice shooting officer.
Maybe whomever wrote that report
failed his or her Creative Writing
class at Malcolm X College, and ya
gotta concede SCC that officers do
use handguns.
Yup, police pull a handgun? These reporters are getting stupider by the day.
Why don't you just let 017 get below 200 coppers while you're at it, Rahmholio. Nothing happens in 017. Oh, I know, it's the Commanders fault! She personally requested that these shitheads move in the district. For the really stupid, that was a joke.
The media and police brass in Chicago couldn't find cheese in Wisconsin without help.
They also said "shot a person". Why can't they write the Officer "shot a low life piece of crap that tried to murder the Officer"?
Sounds like another one of Dave Protess' stellar former students wrote this. We all know how much he just loves cops and CPD officers in generall.
Officers are OK??? Good News.
The Tribune is like a very large bowl of MENUDO, Full of TRIPE !
Glad the officers involved are ok. Too bad the piece of shit didn't die.
Just to let u know... The officer allegedly shot the scumbag
""Officer pulled a handgun"? Gee I wonder if the writer has an agenda?""
Occam's Razor - and my observations of the quality of journalistic writing lately - would make poor verbal skills the prime suspect. The papers and news web sites of actual newspapers are filled with tales of people who "diss" others, "bust" into places and get lost in "desserts" while shots "ring out." Pisses me off that I can write rings ("wrings?) around 24 year old J-school hacks who are already making more in a year than I will in the rest of my working life.
You guys must not know the North Side at all. Albany Park has had serious gang issues for a while. Pulaski to Kimball, Lawrence to Montrose has been bad for 30 years.
The dumbing down of America continues unabated. We have writers working for major news organizations who don't even know basic grammar or spelling. Soon we will become the laughingstock of the world. Oh wait.....

Good point!
Now that we are admitting that gang violence is a war and that it is domestic terrorism, it is time to arm the citizen militia. Let the citizens exercise their Constitutional Right to BEAR Arms!
Long Live the Bill of Rights!
the channel 9 news reported on this incident this morning and used the same wording....."the officer pulled out a handgun"....they made it sound like he was off-duty or something. goofs.
The dog had just turned its life around and was going to attend school this fall..... pit vs rifle round score one for the good guys.

Capt. K.B. is getting worse and worse. He comes into roll call everyday and continues to tell everyone that we are doing a good job. He says activity and contact cards are up and crime is down. FU!
The Commander C.V. then writes a letter to all the officers thanking us for making 025 the model for the city in these bs compstat meetings.
Then the 2 goofs deny days off, deny furlough extensions, break up partners, deny honorable mentions and DC, bounce people from their regular cars, and change officers start times everyday. He even wanted an officer to come to work the day after he got into a shooting! He also wanted to burn a slip instead of carrying them, for 2 guys who worked 25 hrs. straight on a homicide offender! He said "this is too much overtime" Its not your time asshat!
Capt K.B. then rode a great sgt. G.C. by changing his start times and making him work the desk when he has more seniority than most other sgts when he requested not too. He fuc##d with him so much that he retired.
Capt KB is a weasel and kisses your a** to your face then rides you behind your back. He has even made Lt. H.R. into a coward who is as shaky as he is.
025 does a good job for these hack bosses and get nothing in return. It may be time for a work slow down. Then we will see who looks good in their bs. compstat meetings.
These bosses dont understand that all this activity is not required. We are only required to answer our calls. Its time to start taking care of us or we will stop taking care of them.

Yeah why would they report that?! Typical Media
Dead bodies should not be put in dumpsters. They should be recycled. Let's go green...before Chalkie does.

WHAT A BUNCH of pandering Asshole, just worried about keeping their jobs. Trying to boost Morale, but not a one has a set of balls to stand up to the Supt. and Mayor Finger-broke-off-in-the-Ass, and try to get more help, better equipment, or better perks for Officers. Just stay low, and in low gear, and the City will be begging you soon, as things continue to unravel. Keep up the great, but slow and careful work guys.

There are alot of dogs on 3rd watch in 025. For the goof who got into a shooting yeah what a clown. Anyone who brags about how many people they shot is a clown.
To the poster ripping on captain k.b. , sgt. G.c. wasnt all that great. He yelled a lot and complained about seargents with more time then him getting early start times. Despite being an old timer, he didnt have much time as a supervisor. He was also a bully until you told him to fuck off.
Everything else you wrote is pretty accurate. Still, id blame the goofy commander as the one pulling the puppet strings. Lets see, promote a guy to commander that didnt even have a year on as a lt.........brilliant move by j fed!
I am a retired police officer of 34 yrs and would like to say "GOOD JOB" to those guys in 017. In addition I live in a high rise on Sheridan Rd up in Edgwater and would like to say how proud I was, to the officers in 024 and the PROFESSIONALISM they exhibited with the women trying to jump out of the 13th floor window this morning. You guys don't get nearly enough "atta-boys" for what you do! Be safe and NEVER trust a Fed!

SCC, Again, you expect WAYYYY TOOOO MUCH from anny hack reporter in this town.
My H.S. Newsletter had better articles than the tribune.
No doubt written by a recent graduate of the esteemed Medill School of Journalism. Some fool with $150,000 in student loans working for the Trib and on the payroll for a cool $35,000 per year. And the same fool shares an apartment in Wriggleyville with four other dopes, goes to Cubs games and brags about the big job at the Tribune Corporation. LOL. And the brain trust at the Medill School sleeps at night with this scam. Shame on you Northwestern.

Speaking of loser bosses, what about the tact lt? Even though she's never around she can pull your stats from memory! she is the worst boss of all time. I'd take Cpt. KB over her and her Jane Wayne syndrome any day.
the offender, SGD, gang tattoo covered offender had been caught on previous occassions with a gun, but he was a juv.... got a luv juv. gun court, iam sure judge carl walker gave him a fist pound and told him not to do it again, like he usually does... luckly no po's were seriously hurt... when are judges going to be held accountable for letting these shit heads run wild???
025 3rd Watch-
The young cops bring in the good numbers and then get fucked over by captain ****ASS. This guy is a complete fool. The young cops are motivated to stay on the watch and he is going to dump them (those without seniority to make the bid) to 1st watch.

Everything you said is true. Except the part about Sgt. G.C. being a great Sgt. The guy acts like a fucking baby. He doesn't know how to talk to people and depending on his mood, he will snap. Sgt. G.C.- the world doesn't revolve around your mood! Other than that, an excellent post. To the young officers who may get dumped to 1st watch, working midnights isn't that bad. Remember, the economy is in a depression and you still have a great job with great benefits.

Sgt gc is a great supervisor he obviously didn't care for you. Always looked after you. An for all the young guys getting dumped to first watch good thats how it should be. I agree with your comment we are in a depression, people should be greatfull to just have a job but coppers bitch way to much. As for the 025 3rd watch guys I don't really no who still Works on that watch half the time they are all just messing around and making stupid comments on the radio.
cmdr from 25....isn't he another triple merit promotion awardee...det., sgt., lt., then gets the exempt spot months later.

Most guys on the watch do work, it's grAteful, and some of those comments are kinda funny. Additionally, this department is totally legit, so once you and all your perfection climb down off your soapbox, one day you too can put on a white shirt with some little silver pins and start dumping ppl at will because you are clearly so superior to the us lowly P.O's, who, with 5-9 years have to sweat going to the midnights.

It really doesn't matter about these guys. Capt KB is retiring soon. Lt HR is leaving and Sgt GC is retired and rumor is the Commander CV is going to get another spot when McGoofy shakes things up. The problem is who will be coming in. We just need to look out for ourselves and each other.

All we have to do is stick together. But that will never happen!
Sad thing is 3rd watch in 017 is so short the officers' safety is in jeopardy on a daily basis. Glad this one went well. There was a big 10-1 a couple of weeks ago and p.o.s from 016 and 19 came to help, as 017 was way too short. It definitely has turned into a shit district. Be careful officers! You are doing a great job with what you have, but stay safe!
sgt. G.C. retired because he wanted to follow his dreams of being a poker stars champion. world series of poker is what his heart desires. he had his fill of police work.
