Another Warm Night

  • Two men were killed and at least 11 people were wounded -- one of them by police -- in shootings from Tuesday afternoon through Wednesday morning across Chicago, police said.

  • Among those wounded overnight was a man shot by police around midnight after pointing a gun at an officer in the 1600 block of East 83rd Street, authorities said.

    Police officers heard gunfire and were told the shots came from a car. When they tried to stop the car, a passenger ran off and the officer chased him, police said. The man turned and pointed a gun at the officer and the officer fired, striking the man, according to police.
Officers are fine and jagoff should live.  And that was just Tuesday into Wednesday - nothing to do with the 80 degree temperature overnight, right?

Wednesday into Thursday isn't looking much better:
  • A man was shot and critically wounded inside a building in the Beverly neighborhood this afternoon, one of at least seven people shot in the city this afternoon and evening, police said.
Summer must be here.

But Rahm and his stooge McDrunky say that it's safe in Chicago and you should come here and spend too much money in the city while their cameras ticket you in and out and you pay Arabs for parking while Daley keeps the deal alive as a lawyer for that company.

Can you say Third World?

Memorial Day is coming and the south lake front wll be out of control as it has been the previous two years as CPD is undermanned and poorly led!

Beverly, just like downtown, is a lost cause!
The shooting in Beverly, occurred less than 3 blocks from St. Barnabas school, a school the educates numerous children from the CPD family. Time to move.

There was an ois either in that same block or within a few blocks of there..I think a year ago. And a homicide a few blocks away in 08/09. Basically...I'm wondering where you have been. I'm from the neighborhood. Little sister went to Barnabas and I went to school with the victim and offender in that homicide a few blocks away. They grew up in Beverly. I was a transplant. Beverly is still pretty safe, city wise. These incidents are generally amongst people that know each other and not involving innocent bystanders.

Speaking of Walden..."Aaron Thurmond, 22, and Jeffrey Horton, 27, both of the 10000 block of Walden Park Drive in Chicago, were charged with human trafficking/involuntary servitude, promoting prostitution and money laundering"...

The only Walden I know is the one next to the Metra. These guys were pimping out some girl in a scenario that involved the upcoming stripping, termination and felonization of a soon to be former Lake County Deputy Sheriff. Mundelein was investigating these guys when Mr.Deputy turned up as a customer...before they knew he was a cop.
