Shots Fired at Police in 011 (UPDATES)

  • No Chicago police officers were hurt when a gunman opened fire on officers on the city's West Side, authorities said.

    The shots were fired at Harrison District officers at about 10 p.m. Wednesday in the 1100 block of North Keystone Avenue in the West Humboldt Park neighborhood, police said.

    Police had no details, but said the shooter remained at-large late Wednesday.

    Numerous officers, including the district's commander, remained at the scene gathering details on the shooting, according to one district officer.

Be careful out there.

UPDATE: This is the second incident nearby within 12 hours, maybe less. 014 Tact was shot at near Spaulding and Division in broad daylight. That just about qualifies as Humboldt Park proper instead of this "West Humboldt Park."

UPDATE: One in custody:
  • Chicago police have arrested a man who they say pointed a handgun at officers on the city's West Side.

    Officers fired shots on the gunman, missing him, but taking him into custody after a brief foot chase at about 10 p.m. Wednesday in the 1100 block of North Keystone Avenue in the West Humboldt Park neighborhood, police said.

Keep safe.

Examples like this is why we all wanted Washington back. Henny Penny would've been doing cartwheels at some Southside Make Believe church while Eric is on scene making sure his guys are OK.

Glad no coppers were injured. Fuck these SAVAGES (that was for you, Neil), leave them to destroy themselves and just continue to take care of each other. Wait to see how these bastards act when 011 is stripped bare of manpower come NATO & G8. You hairgels and folks new to 011 ain't seen nothing yet.

Be safe, back each other up, and go home in one piece. It doesn't matter where you work or what shift you are on. Criminals and Police haters are everywhere! Sometimes, I get stupid comments on why do I carry my carbine(M4) when nothing is going on during my watch. Trust me, I don't carry it to show off. This thing is about 10 to15 pounds. I carry it to protect myself and my partner. Im not a sniper, but, I believe that the rifle is MORE accurate than firing the pistol with more ammo and a lot powerful.

OT - Dallas Cowboys complete Triple Crown against Bears

Three of the Chicago Bears off-season free agent acquisitions were final cuts from the Dallas Cowboys 2010 roster.

1- Marion Barber helped kill the Bears playoff chances with a penalty that took a touchdown off the board against KC two weeks ago and a fumble in field goal range against the Bronco's that would have won the game in OT.

2- Receiver Roy Williams has been a bust pretty much all season.

3- Now, Receiver Sam Hurd has been arrested outside a Chicago restaurant after he accepted a kilogram of cocaine from a confidential informant and an undercover federal agent posing as a drug supplier.

If all of this isn't a testament as to how REALLY terrible a GM Jerry Angelo is, I don't know what is! The Bears need to find the Theo Epstein of the NFL or they will once again show how little they care about winning.

The superintendent met last night, Wednesday night, with about 60 parolees at the Relectory in Columbus Park. He asked them not to shoot at each other. Every boss in the department was there which meant they out numbered the parolees. I hope he asked them not to shoot at us, or did he forget that part. Parole agents rounded them up and ordered them to show up or it would be a violation of their parole. Complete joke of a meeting, please don't shoot. On a side note, is the superintendent's driver from Chicago? Does he really need a gigantic GPS on his dashboard. At least throw it on the seat before you pull up so it looks like you know what your doing!

Yeah, uh, it's not like the motherf__ers publish schedules...

"Nothing going on during my watch." You could have said that in downtown Liege, Belgium -- and a second later it's war, some madman throwing hand grenades and shooting Christmas shoppers -- tiny kids running in terror.

Shooter was apparent Arab descent, on parole for drug and weapons violations, and they say he was still good for a gun permit...

"Humboldt Park" = "North Michigan Avenue," or anywhere else there are people with money (some of whom might want to buy drugs) and ipods iphones xboxes to steal.

No magic electric barrier to keep the carp away just because a lot of condos were built. The wave is surging back now. They don't have to live there to bust your head and take your wallet when you're on the way out to your car.

Uhhh... Yeah...

Didn't that article in Chicago Magazine kinda touch on this dumb shit?

Muthafuckahs too bold, too free and easy with dropping shots at The Police...

Funny how Policemen are considered targets and second class citizens in this town.

It seems the ghetto dogs are heroes in the eyes of the public...

The very concept of Policing is being ruined while the ghetto dogs thrive and prosper...

The people have spoken... this is the madness they endorsed by virtue of who's narrow ass is sitting in the chair at city hall and the narrow minds that make up the city council.

And speaking of... Ain't it funny that as soon as a first responder wins a council seat, the other dirty pricks try to redraw him out of his own ward?

‘Want him to know I did everything’

Nanci Koschman said Thursday she’s fighting now for her late son, David Koschman.

She said that’s why she’s asking Cook County’s chief criminal courts judge to appoint a special prosecutor to determine whether criminal charges should be filed against Richard J. “RJ’’ Vanecko, a nephew of former Mayor Richard M. Daley, for throwing the punch that led to her son’s death seven years ago.

"(Daley also) serves as counsel at Chicago law firm Katten Muchin Rosenman LLP and is the managing principal of investment and advisory firm Tur Partners LLC [and let's not forget Distinguished Senior Fellow at the University of Chicago].

“Mr. Daley brings significant public policy expertise and experience in creating sustainable growth opportunities for businesses and communities to our company,” Coca-Cola Chairman and CEO Muhtar Kent said in the news release. “His experience and insights will be invaluable as we continue to work to grow our business and invest in the fabric of the communities we serve.”

I will be looking carefully at labels in the future to make sure we never buy another Coca-Cola product.

To any dickhead who preaches "go to the range", I have a retort. I, as well as most officers are better than average on the range, but, the range doesn't make your asshole slam shut, heart pound out of your chest, or SHOOT BACK at you. I am very confident in my abilities, but the bad guys get lucky sometimes while running away and shooting at us. Unlike us, they have very little to live for. We have families, friends, homes, and very much to lose if these dickheads get lucky and hit us. So, don't Monday morning quarterback these officers. If you've ever been there and survived, awesome. If not...SHUT THE FUCK UP!

Its easier said then done. Trust me I'm sure these officers have this scene replaying over and over again in their head thinking of what they could've have done better. They don't need coworkers telling them what they should have done. Its reaction and split second decisions. I'm just glad everyone is ok. Stay safe out there guys.
