West Side Brewing Up a Storm?

  • A gunman opened fire on a home in the Austin neighborhood Sunday morning after an argument at a party, wounding six people, including a notable high school basketball player, police and hospital officials said.

    The shooting happened around 3:30 a.m. in the 4900 block of West Race Avenue on the West Side, said [...] a Chicago Police Department spokesman.

    The shooter left the home after a dispute with another person, returned with a gun and shot into the home...
3:30 AM? The adult supervision was......where exactly?

And tomorrow is going to be in the mid-50's? Barb West is going to have a lot of house visits to make. Maybe she can bring her new best buddy Erwin along for the ride?

Hats off to commander in 011. Sounds like a leader with balls. We shouldn't have to kiss these aldermen ass. If they have an issue with something going on they should have their assistant call CAPS and put in a service request form and let the beat officer handle it. These aldermen are crooked and greedy. Race shouldn't be an issue either. It should be the best qualified individual for the job.

Years ago, back when Harold was Mayor, a young Basketball Star, a role model, who had fathered a child with his 16 yr. old Squeeze was shot to death. Flags were flown at half-mast in his honor. Chicagoans die in combat, and we do not fly the flag at half-mast! It was the begging of what we live today, THE END.

Can you imagine at the next Orr basketball game, the opposing teams fans scream . . . Bang, Bang . . . as old boy is driving to the net, next thing you see is him duck and cover! "Heard shots, felt pain, realized I'd been shot!"

BUBBA- "Forest, . . why did this have to happen!"
FOREST- "YOU GOT SHOT!"

Chicago officer hit in face by ricocheting bullet
3 hours ago • Associated Press

CHICAGO (AP) — A Chicago police officer has been released from the hospital after he was hit in the face by a ricocheting bullet.

Police officials say the 34-year-old veteran officer was released from Northwestern Memorial Hospital early Monday. He was struck Sunday evening while trying to execute a search warrant on the city's South Side.

In a statement, police say someone inside the home fired at the officer, but the bullet ricocheted off a piece of wood before hitting him.

Everyone is a "promising basketball player" or "promising rap star." The latest statistic was that unemployment among young black males in Chicago is at 95%.

Not to worry. There is an unlimited number of openings for "reverends" and "community activists."

To my understanding, under law a 17 year old doesn't have a curfew. Doesn't mean his parents still shouldn't set one though. When I was 17, my parents allowed me to stay out until atleast 2:00am on a few different occasions I can remember. As long as they knew where I was, who I was with, and obeyed that curfew it was fine, and we're talkn' before cell phones. Twice officers stopped me on my way home, learned of my age and let me go on my way.

They're not shooting eachother though. Odds are, they're at home at that point because they were raised correctly and have parents who care.
