That's Going to Leave a Mark II
- Police have launched a homicide investigation into the death of a man who had been impaled by a fence post Sunday night during a fight near his Burnside neighborhood home on the South Side, authorities said.
An autopsy Monday determined Edward James Scott, 48, of the 9100 block of South Greenwood Avenue, died of head injuries and impalement on a fence post during an assault, according to the Cook County medical examiner’s office. Scott's death was ruled a homicide, according to the medical examiner's office.
Scott became involved in a dispute about 8 p.m. Sunday with unknown individuals near his home, according to Chicago Police Department News Affairs [...]. One of the people approached and struck him in the head, causing him to fall onto a fence post which pierced his eye socket, [police] said; he then fell to the ground, suffering blunt trauma to the head.
Now that's just a bad day.

Sorry... what I meant to say was his face doesn't ring a bell but it sure does hold a fence up well!
Vlad the Impaler is a prime suspect.
Colonel Mustard bludgeoned Mr. Scott with the candlestick holder before he was impaled on the fence.
The zetas are here right?
Sounds just like Mexico. We should have severed heads in baskets on State Street soon with bodies strung up on Chicago river bridges.
Just another political tool that's all.
Sad how the savages have taken over neighborhoods, and a homeowner who pays real estate taxes pays the ultimate price. In the meantime our asshole mayor refuses to hire more police, and McCarthy keep saying crime is down.
Damned gravity will get you every time.
eek... i dont think they can buff that one out Bob... gonna be a total... yep, a total is what it is... wow...
We need sensible Fence Control Now! Stop the slaughter! I am sick of all this bloodshed by fences. ånd we need a total ban on assault fences. This True Value Fence Company is only interested in profit. Meanwhile, people are dying ont heir fences. Enough! We need a bill to governor Clarabelle the Clown Quinn now!
That didn't pan out.
Must have been one of those high capacity assault style fences. They have no business being in our neighborhoods.
Multi-million dollar lawsuit to be filed against property owner for: 'having a dangerous fence that's accessible to the public', in; 5... 4... 3... 2... 1...
[lawyers. can't live with 'em, can't ki... uh, never mind ;-)]
Does smoking blunts give one blunt force trauma?
LMAO, so glad I don't live in the ghetto.
Can the fence company be sued for instaling a fence
topped with pointed spikes
thus creating a potentialy
dangerous hazard to life and limb ? (snicker)
Does that fence have more than one post? you don't want a repeating fence.
Did the victim ever post here?
It might have been Daley's nephew that threw the punch, me thinks
Bet he went out and told some fool to quit slinging dope, or drinking forties in front of his stoop. Whereupon he ran smack into the juggernaut of fifty years of appeasement and dis-empowerment.
Yikes! That had to hurt.
Fence must have been black or Father Faker and Jessie Jackass would be marching.
Ban fence posts now!
Is the fence OK?
Can the fence company be sued for instaling a fence

--------------------------------
The answer is yes, us attorney' we get this young man' bereaved family some cash to ease the pain.
Homeowner and the fence company insurance will pay.
Sorry, just learned the fence company is out of business after they did the fences on tax payers dime. City is pay for this injustice.
I am sure the city has paid and provided the readers of this blog with free fences.
It is called urban renewal. Remember all the sod the city laid in 5, 6, and 7 a few years back. Millions of $ !! You think the grass is still growing there.
Heard the city did the W/end of 016 too. LOL.
We are all screwed.
