Oops
- The 88-year-old man had been to the gym and had just parked in front of his Englewood home when the two masked men walked up Wednesday morning.
One of them pulled a gun and asked for the keys to his silver Lincoln.
“They got him in front of the door,’’ said the man's 89-year-old wife. “He was kinda scared but he agreed when they said to give him the keys and they didn’t hurt him."
They sped off from the 1000 block of West 61st Street around 9:45 a.m., but it wasn't long before they were spotted by police headed north on Aberdeen Street, then north on Wentworth Avenue. At 49th Street, the carjackers struck a semi and slammed into a retaining wall, according to police.
"Squad, he just crashed," an officer radioed around 10:20 a.m. "Send an ambulance ... 49th and Wentworth."
A dispatcher responded, "49th and Wentworth, an ambulance, 10-4."
"Get that ambulance over here right now," another officer is heard saying on the radio
Of course, the police will be to blame, after a weekend that saw nearly twenty car jackings and unprecedented media coverage of what a broken judicial system can inflict absent any punishment for wrongdoers.

Hey citizens of Chicago.....Your on your own! Liberal Democrats have destroyed the CPD. Cops won't chase anyone and look the other way to keep their jobs. Poor 89 year old man threatened with guns to give up his car. What a disgrace!
Caught some car-jackers up North....a few weeks back. Pistol whipped victims, no Trr, no car chase, no one else injured, no use of force, gun recovered , multiple heads, numerous robberies cleared, flawless....... not even mentioned at roll call. hell, even the blog deleted my original post.
Gramps, this is your chance to exercise at home
and buy a late model low key used car that's not
on the hot list. Your Lincoln days are over.
Fucking love it. Squashed cockroaches.
......at least pops still has his Fossil watch
I love a happy ending we can only hope the second offender joins his partner.
Glad the old timer is ok
Bye bye assholes. I wish more carjackers would meet this fate. Our illustrious justice system here thinks its a property crime. Its not. Its a violent crime. Ask the 88 year old guy if the gun in his face was just a property crime.
That's a damn shame.
Lincolns are nice cars.
Well good job. I hate to say it and sound cold but they needed to go. The courts would have let them right out.
Oh well.
My sincerest hope is that the Lincoln can be saved. Use every possible measure to extend it's life. [read sell asshole's anything to anyone that will pay for repair or replacement of lost property] Step up to the plate, Soylent Corporation!
Too bad the car thief passenger didn't expire too.
Too harsh?
No, I have zero sympathy for these criminals.
Damn polices kilt them.
They was just fixin on turnin they lives around.
Jeez I hope the wall is ok, uncle Lar.
"Squad, he just crashed," an officer radioed around 10:20 a.m. "Send an ambulance, a revrun, the young pillar of the communities grandmother for the photo-ops, and every asshole available for a candle vigil cause he was about to change his life around... 49th and Wentworth."
Lol-- 2 blocks north of 002
I'm feeling real sad for the old guy. He'll probably never get another car like that. As for the punks involved, they can both rot.
Did the commander of 2 show up?
"Get that ambulance over here right now," another officer is heard saying on the radio
Would it be too much to ask to make that request with a Please?

When the federal lawsuit gets filed then you'll have the recognition you deserve, until then keep doing your job...
Old guy at 88 still going to the gym, Bless him, maybe he can inspire my lazy ass. To bad about his car, I'm guessing his new car will be a corvette, big to little. Get a 5 speed, dude cant drive that.
I'm so sorry for the Old Dude and his car......Schlitheads.....Not so much.....
"...Caught some car jackers up north..."
Hello my cutie. If you are looking for some reward and recognition, you can always come to my pretty loft. There, are an unlimited supply of my famous white wine spritzers, I can give you all the reward you will ever need.
Now, kees me you fool!!!!
arms at it's .best. Hope the pos suffered before he was gone. One less to worry about. See he changed his life around, steering wheel or windshield. Man about to be sued for giving up his keys. No keys no crash. Failing that will sue fuel company for allowing car to run, failing that auto mfg for having writeable vehicle. Someone's got to pay.
Felony murder for the survivor.
Surprised by urgency of call for ambulance. Why j.a.n.
All in all pretty good day on the job. Two down lots more to go.
Why the rush to call for an ambulance?
Does anyone know if charges are being approved once carjackers are arrested? Time for citizens to install anti car jacking systems
The 88 years olds car had disabled/handicapped veteran's plates. And this happened to him after veteran's day. Wow! After leaving the gym, returning home to his 89 year old wife. Double wow.
It’s still a tremendous loss for us because #2 is still alive and burning through taxpayer funded health care at an incredible rate.
Retiree healthcare is the problem, Rahm?
Fuck you.
Every, fucking day I show up, I remember this for my entire tour and do my best to spread hatred of you and all you stand for.
U.S. military plates on the older gents car. He was a military vet. Wonder if the crime victim's fund will assist the vet and his 89 year old wife with a new car.
Don't like to add insult to injury,but the surviving jacker can be charged with felony murder.
Of course I'm thinking of a fantasy jurisdiction in which prosecutors might actually be inclined to do so.
Very sad...that the other piece of shit did not die at the scene as well.

So you need to be told you did a good job?! I wish SCC would have deleted this post! Go jump off the sears tower then everyone will talk about that.

Really ....Fuck that Gramps can do and drive whatever he pleases and he should be suing the
"parents" if they can be found for causing him PTSD and for rasing worthless leaches on Society
Self terminated a short slow chase on a stolen prior to inevitable crash into a parked unoccupied car, 3 heads caught, 3 juvies, 3 slap on the wrists. That was my last chase ever after feeling some heat ! 4yrs on , ive started to look toward the end of the tunnel already- sad really !
more ppos to the south side and west side districts per supt Johnson they are having an impact in crime reduction!
He's 88. The wife is 89. He still goes to the gym. They still live in the 'Wood. They have beat all the odds.
Glad to see the elderly victim was not physically harmed.
Now if we can only get Chip Foose to pick up and restore his car.
Sad.
Dirtbag dead! Works for me
Maybe that goof comander can ride her camel for the vigil.

Hey, just curious but where were these guys arrested and when? Many more in other parts of the city match this of getting pistol whipped and maybe it can help clear some up.
I bet a lawyer beat the ambulance to the scene. 🤔
Great job up to the crash into the wall, then I would have driven away and returned an hour later, maybe. That's my M.O being fetal on steroids.
The States Attorney says don't charge unless they have 14 prior convictions for car jacking.
I looked in the mirror, a blue light was blinking, the cops was after my Hot rod Lincoln...
Then a traffic jam happened!
Remember a vehicle is NOT a dangerous weapon according to the left...
Cops will be blame because the carjackers have now become the victims...
"One of them pulled a gun and asked for the keys to his silver Lincoln."
Nice writing there. Might as well have said "the youth requested to borrow the vehicle to transport his bedridden grandmother to her doctor's appointment."
(OT) These headlines from another democratic pos elected:
Baltimore Mayor Reacts To Crime: ‘I Am Deeply Disturbed’
http://baltimore.cbslocal.com/2017/11/15/baltimore-mayor-crime-violence/
Baltimore Residents Afraid To Leave Homes As Violent Crime Wave Continues...
'This Is Worse Than Detroit, Chicago'...
No ms mayor we are leading in Chicago,another result of elected democrats with the "we hates the poolices" mentality,along with their water carriers in the "dishonest media' have done this! y'all just keep on pandering, be like kimmy-tommy-toni-rahm the 50 and sprinkle in criminal "little luis" G and the recipe for total disaster and bloodshed with the topping murder is complete!
Let's examine the CPD for example if the "skulls full of mush" coppers would finally realize that all that matters is "blue lives" and enjoy the front row seats to the biggest live play in the world and don't interact with the cast it is a great job! Write paper,call for ambo,call for wash down rinse and repeat! get that cup of coffee,watch the show from your front row seats,when the show is over help clean the mess rinse and repeat! Personally always going home along with my partner with a smile on my face knowing we were able to see the "greatists show on earth" and got paid for attending!
God bless the police,and God bless the best pro-law enforcement President ever Trump!!Cannot wait until the DOJ comes here storm trooping the criminals at city hall county building and state house,and they are coming soon right now training in "take down" methods with the FBI the joyous days we have coming soon!
Victim was a military vet
The bad guys hit a semi truck then went right into a concrete wall at the Metra. Karma.
Feral lawless Chicago.
Happy ending.
I’m sure Gramps had insurance.
Fortunate for all is that this didn’t happenin 016, there wouldn’t be an oversaturation of street police and a pair of idling ambulances on standby.
Hindsight, would radio silence and a u-turn been a better choice for a property crime?
Is it a fact that the I-Bond made it to the E/R faster than second offender?
Rahm’s CO’PRA has first dibs on any video.
This mope is/was undoubtedly a frequent flyer, and should have been locked up somewhere, but due to budgets/culture/politics, he is dead by his own hand, the dumbass.... A totally foreseeable outcome. Too bad the old guy lost his lincoln, but the loss to humanity hovers around zero.... Sadly the taxpayers will have to pay to put the other asshole back together if hie lives....
Damn man, I was hoping the Lincoln was going to survive!
Thought car chases were over?? Stop playing the dog chasing the stick...
Most of these Urban Utes never had any driving lessons. Lol
Para pa pa pa.... I'm lovin it!
That poor car!
Almost a happy ending. Too bad one shit bag is alive.
On the brighter side he probably hurts like a Mo-Fo....
Damn, I thought the old guy had lit them up with his CCW from looking at the headline.
Oh well, the story still had a happy ending.
Why the rush to call for an ambulance?
11/16/2017 06:56:00 AM
The fear of litigation in his voice was palpable.
I've always hate hearing guys say," Step,up that ambulance!" Or something like that.
You sound like an idiot and no, the EMS aren't going to drive faster either.
hello walls
Tore gramp's car up? His insurance should sue the family for a new car.
Now you know why we have high insurance rates in Chicago.
Finally some justice for the community he terrorized..
Family failed...
Court failed...
He'll have a special place right next to Lucifer...
Wonder if the crime victim's fund will assist the vet and his 89 year old wife with a new car.
11/16/2017 07:18:00 AM
Highly doubtful. Victim is the only registered republican within 25 blocks.
That car crash doled out much more punishment than Goxx and the Crook County courts would have.
What a liberal shithole.
Fuck you rahm.
Taxpayers, get the fuck out while you are alive....
The tribune headline said " one dead one injured fleeing from police". You know because it sounds better if the police were at fault.
The police have not been blamed and won't be blamed, not for this one. And the carjacker is never the victim. The victim is the guy minding his own business crossing the street who gets killed. This summer it was a pregnant woman on the Ike. Will it take a cop's mother getting killed to get you guys to understand that high-speed chases are often just not worth it?
The only tragedy here, is that a Lincoln Towncar seats 7.......

Great song lol. Just caught that
Faron Young
Concrete walls, trees, and "L" supports tend not to move when hit, no matter how big or fast that car is.
(From Page 3 "Carjacking For Dummies")
You know, this younger generation is just plain lazy. Whatever happened to the days when you had to work at punching the door lock and peeling the steering column with a screwdriver when you wanted to grab a ride? Now just stick a gun in someone's face and take it.

...The current generation of thugs is scary, elderly people used to be more off limits before but now they are ready targets. Carjackings are up because newer cars are designed better to prevent theft. Not so easy now to hot wire, etc. But the no-chase policy and reduced penalties are also factors.
Update, We were told in roll call in 007 that the surviving offender was charged with murder approved by the ASA only later the great office of Kim Foxxx denied the charges. Then the Chief of Detectives over turned them and charged him with murder again. You can only guess what's going to happen in court. Ridiculous.

No surprise there.
Kim Foxx is nothing if not consistent.
She DID run on a platform of retribution against
The Police and upright, law abiding society.
Did she not?
Now this case has taken on a life of it's own
with the Chief of Detectives pushing back against
Kim Foxx's obvious hatred for all things Police.
You just KNOW she's fuming and plotting
revenge in furtherance.
And if she orders her subordinates to
tank this case in retribution and this
shit-bird goes on to try and harm
someone else, Cabrini Kim should be
made to wear the shit-shirt for it.
At best, this woman is unprofessional.
Karma can be a bitch. Karma, the new replacement for justice.

Charges approved then rescinded. Get an override.
Why?
The case will be tossed at earliest convienence.
Has anyone ever had or know of an overridden case that went anywhere but down the drain?
Its the whole system, not just the judicial system. This will be proved, soon!
