Shooting
- A Chicago police officer shot a man during a foot chase that ended inside an East Chatham apartment building Wednesday night.
A little after 7 p.m., officers on “proactive patrol” saw a man with a gun standing in a crowd near 79th Street and Drexel, according to Chicago Police Patrol Bureau Chief Fred Waller.
Three officers tried to stop him, but he ran about a block and forced his way into the third floor of an apartment building at 79th and Ingleside, Waller said.
A “brief struggle ensued” and one of the officers shot the man once, Waller said. Thought to be in his early 20s, he was listed in serious condition at the University of Chicago Medical Center. Police did not say where on the body he was shot.
Police said they recovered a handgun with an extended magazine from the suspect, who did not fire the weapon, Waller said. Chicago police spokesman Anthony Guglielmi tweeted out a photo of the gun recovered.
All's well that ends well we suppose....if it ever really ends. Nice job.

For sure the offender’s financial worries ended the second that round left that chamber.
Let's put these jockeys on cold cases and
get the clearance rate up. Incompetent
management ensures low clearance rates.
“he was listed in serious condition at the University of Chicago Medical Center....”
Send the bill the Ram imanewle... the guy who created the political environment the way it is... and have the family sue his estate as oppose to the office. Roosters come home to roost, gotta pay the dues
Too bad that no brain Ms Fenner still goes by that stupid order that put a copper on the desk. Why not having the officer stay home for 30 days after risking his life for people that hate the police and have never done a good thing in their lives, sorry "TY-Ronnie made people laugh and was funny after getting up at 1600 hrs.
Hope the officer will not get screwed like so many before him since Rahm and Ms. Fenner came to be.
well done officers, as always stay safe and take care of one another .............
Years ago we chased a guy who was selling drugs, that someone complained about, on the street into an apartment building where he forced his way into an innocent person's apartment. He was huge and a body builder he really fought us. So he was pepper sprayed as well as us. He got transported to the station 2 blocks away. Upon entering the station he collapses and dies. So of course we get sued civilly first in state court where it was thrown out then in federal court where the city settled with some chump change. Autopsy revealed he died from a myocardial infarction & hyperthermia due to having coke in his system. His attorney's basis for the suit was that since he fought us we should have realized there was something wrong with him and should have brought him to a hospital instead of arresting him. Now he showed no symptoms until he collapsed. So considering what is going on these days we would have been defendants in criminal court because of the political climate. Glad I am retired from the CPD. My advice is don't chase, don't look for anything or get involved unless it involves the welfare of other first responders. Think everything through and stay safe.
I didn't see nuttin and I didn't do nuttin. Sounds like a lawsuit for this poor old young fella who just been dun harassed by the poleese again. Shame on you dirty blue, don't come around here no more.
Yes, a job well done, but the media will still refer to the a$$hole as the "victim."
getting shot by them mean old polesses must be worth a million right?
“proactive patrol”
Whats that?
SCC, Friday afternoon you will have plenty to talk about!
All this and this asshole still working:
Chicago cop with checkered past under criminal investigation for vicious beating outside gay bar
https://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/breaking/ct-met-chicago-cop-gay-bar-beating-20181023-story.html
Finally attention to this stain of the department, now what about the other clouted sergeant the media is avoiding involved in that drive by shooting of the mentally challenged kid? Any charges yet? If not why not? Media is city hall not allowing you to follow up on this?
It is always refreshing to know that some officers are still out there engaging in proactive aggressive patrol. To all of the new officers- do not believe all of the naysayers. If you follow the law you'll be just fine.
30 days on the desk for what? Your job is on the line lawsuit
One less gun to be used in a North side carjacking.
Keep chasing boys and girls!
watch out for that “proactive patrol” copa and their mentors at the aclu will not like it.
Is there anyone at 79th & Drexel who doesn't have a gun?
Your last sentence says it all SCC.
In today’s anti police climate it never really does end.
Glad everyone is OK.
Now if the officer is confined to desk duty for 30 days is he replaced by a house mouse, desk dollie or a reasonable facsimile thereof?
More and more but this is great how President trump spoke the truth causing the moronic, anti-police lying democrats and the lying fake dishonest media to go into a total tailspin maybe after we get the border under control I.C.E. and homeland could spread out here and gather up all the illegal criminals in a massive raid and deport all of them, then arrest the democratic enablers who refuse to obey federal alws and give this city a new beginning as the trash is taken out and put in prison:
Trump Releases 'Closing' Ad Promising Hard Line Border Stance, Sets off Media Firestorm
President Trump dropped a "closing" ad for the 2018 midterm elections Wednesday night, and it's causing a firestorm in the media.
The ad features footage of Luis Bracamontes, a convicted cop killer and illegal immigrant. The ad says Bracamontes "Killed our people!"
The spot features footage of Bracamontes boasting of his killings and saying he'd like to kill more cops.
'Democrats let him into our country," the ad reads. "Democrats let him stay."
The ad then shows footage from the migrant caravan heading north, and shows one man telling a Fox News reporter that he's hoping President Trump will grant him a pardon for his role in a murder.
"Who else would Democrats let in?" the ad asks.
It closes with a title card reading: "President Donald J. Trump and Republicans Are Making America Safe Again."
Tweet #1057728445386539008
CNN's Chris Cuomo said of the ad, “it makes the Willie Horton ad seem fair,” a reference to the George H. W. Bush ad depicting Michael Dukakis as “soft on crime” after a “weekend pass” program he supported allowed Willie Horton to commit rape while out on furlough.
Sen. Jeff Flake told CNN: “This is just a new low in campaigning. It’s sickening.”
CNN’s Don Lemon said the ad shows Trump “is willing to use lies and scare tactics to terrify his base.” [Video]
The ad, Lemon said, “is racist.”
Robert Reich said: “This may be the most desperate and vile ad since Willie Horton. Trump and Republicans don't want to talk about the fact that they plan to repeal the ACA, gut Social Security, Medicare, & Medicaid, and cut taxes even further for their donors, so they've resorted to fearmongering.”
Max Boot complained: “This ad is giving demagoguery a bad name. This is so blatant, so over the top, so hysterical. It is just a disgrace.”
Don Lemon said that “every American” should speak out against Trump’s ad.
The Tribune noted the "armed" man in their article. Why the parentheses in the article why not state. Armed man? Just another example of lying slanted media making the police the problem. Just stay fetal. You see he has a gun look away, as long as he is not shooting at you why care. With any luck he will use it on another community pos. Proactive policing is dead. Wake up to that fact before your the next media hateful police story.

Another Sgt Eric Elkins story today..... it’s absolutely amazing that this guy is still working and isn’t in jail. He is an absolute disgrace to this department. This just goes to show you exactly how untouchable all these POS bosses are.
Off the beaten track but what is the deal with this Sgt. Elkins. This guy is a sexual predator who obviously has some whack to still be on this job. Is it because he is an alternate life style guy who cant seem to hold his booze. It seems to me that many of him and his friends have issues. He needs to be gone for sure. I was a Sergeant in 20 when his beef with the Amundson student came around. Supposedly took the student home and did him.just what we need. There is always fire when there is smoke.
Las Vegas Metro PD has been involved in 21 shootings in 2018, Chicago PD 14. CPD IS the problem?
Very good 20th century work.
Very dangerous work in the 21st century.
There was a fatal police shooting 5 1/2 years ago in 017. Still no word on the"investigative ruling" from the city. Hang in SL. U still have supporters.
Glad to see that SCC indicated an extended magazine while dofuss waller called it a clip. Same thing on the 32 news.
When will these morons use the correct terminology?
Part of me says screw it, that shitbird was only going to shoot other shitbirds, let it ride. The other part says what if one of those bullets had a cop’s name on it?
So as much as I would like to support “stay fetal”, I just can’t. We cannot surrender. To do so is to put our own and every innocent person at risk. I won’t give up.
Great job by the police.

More and more embolden thanks elected for pandering and letting them run freely!
I know we're all doing our best to stay comfortably curled up in the fetal position these days, but sometimes you just fall into shit. Thank God the officers involved are okay. Stay safe boys and girls.
At least the copper will get out of 003 once in a while to go downtown for the depositions. There's a Starbucks on the s/e corner, mezzanine level, of the building. I'm glad no one was hurt but bad move chasing.
This department is under attack by its own leadership. Officers and FOP are under attack by everyone else. Chicago leaders tolerate mistreatment and encourage it to the point of officers killing themselves. The City leaders , elected officals encourage. gossip, smear and shame tactics to kill officers. Politicians are only about money and themselves and their Narrative.
Chicago leaders tolerate behavior and promote unethical behavior in the professional community. officers have no where to go. They are treated bad outside he scope of employment. They are personal attacked and smeared by the system created for. them to fall back on and depend on. The benefits legally provided to officers in the CBA are all fluff. Other departments in the country are blown away with hoe officers here are treated. Then the media is a whole other topic. They are paid by the politicians. FOP is handcuffed. This is the machine. It is thriving more then ever and other places in the country are aware of the craziness in Chicago. I pray that leaders and elected officials look in the mirror. Stop violating civil liberties of hard working officers and stop violating constitiuional rights of. police officers. Leaders can not allow for there friends and donators to continue to use the system to violate officers rights blatantly.
I pray the leaders raise the bar on themselves. There are many great leaders in Chicago. Please speak up and do what's right. Stop the shaming by political big shots trying to settle personal scores thru the department and courts. This department can not lose more officers to suicide. Only in Chicago is the police suicide so high. Officers get together and put personal feelings aside. Media needs to stop stooping so low. Stop with the personal attacks for the leaders.
God Bless CPD
OT> Hey SCC How come no mention of the front page story in the Tribune of the Sgt of police?
Who the hell is this guys clout that he is still on the job & not fired years ago. Maybe Ald Tunney, or the heavy gay community?. In one case he pleads guilty to assault & battery. Another case he assaults minors of his own family. A 16yr old kid admits to having sex with him, describes his car, house, and maybe you know what else? And all this and he is still on the payroll.
And this judge Wadas has to be soft as shit. Wonder who paid him off?
The Dept will fire a po for some stupid shit, but this guy is a sex offender and is still on the job and not behinf bars.
Changes...................
Capt.Brian McDermott to Commander of 008
Commander Ron Pontecore...lateral to 017
Commander Susan Moss....lateral to XO of Area Central
Commander Francis Valadez to Street Deputy
Lt. Maureen Biggane to Commander of 016

I would watch the private video if I was you which was posted on COPA website. The video is so good it even has audio. Shows the kid running. Kid stop on front lawn. Cop pulls up. You can hear the cop giving verbal direction as the kid ignores and begins to walk toward his car while his hand goes to the side/small of his back while walking to the car still. Dark out. Guy doesn’t know what this kid is doing, no prior contact with him so the knowing he was autistic beforehand theory is out the window and irrelevant which is all explainable and will be deemed a good shot. The video will help him and he should be glad there was such good video on this house. Please research before commenting. It may not be the “smartest” shoot but absolutly will be deemed justified. It’s always easier looking at it in hindsite but remember when it’s happening you only know what you know at that second. Years later you finally think you have it figured out and are ready to charge him however after all this time you didn’t watch the video and don’t have the facts... man, you would be a perfect fit for a COPA investigator...
“It is always refreshing to know that some officers are still out there engaging in proactive aggressive patrol. To all of the new officers- do not believe all of the naysayers. If you follow the law you'll be just fine”
Ha! Don’t worry kid, rahm and the states attorneys office will protect you. You probably think that strippers like you too. Engage in proactive aggressive patrol, you just better hope you don’t ever make a mistake. Or not even a mistake, how about you’re chasing on foot and the mutt pulls out a BB gun, looks realistic, you shoot and kill him. Sure you’re justified, you think the news cares? You’re face will be plastered all over CNN along with your address your parents address. Don’t worry, you did the right thing, rahm will take care of you.

Wtf does this mean. Unintelligent arguement. Think before you speak. How about you type, CPD has the lowest documented use of force situations of all the major departments in the country. So why a consent decree? Or why is CPD the problem? Not “Vegas police have more shootings, so investigate them and leave us alone.” .....moron
More deadly lead rahm wow another lying scandal covered up:
City didn’t tell all homeowners that some metered homes showed high lead levels

At least the copper will get out of 003 once in a while to go downtown for the depositions. There's a Starbucks on the s/e corner, mezzanine level, of the building. I'm glad no one was hurt but bad move chasing.
That’s 006...and if it was 003, the office would’ve gotten beaten up then refused to press charges.

11/01/2018 03:29:00 PM
1. You might want to take your own advice and do some research before you shoot your mouth off.
2. Sgt dumb dumb told investigators that he exited his car and the kid started to charge at him while pulling what he thought was a gun.
3. When the casings were found in his car and he was asked how they got there lawyered up.
4. If him saying he thought he had a gun is enough for this shit show to be found justified then Van Dyke should have never been brought to trial as he knew McDonald was armed.
5. You are part of the problem of trying to make “things right” for people who have zero business being on this job.
It's comical watching the liberals from Hyde Park bitch and moan about the police taking no action against the savage yutes destroying everything in site on Halloween night. You got what you asked for.....hahahahaha.....call the ACLU next time....
This is where we at now with knives copper being attacked:
Man Wielding Knives in Each Hand Tried to Stab Illinois Cop: Police
https://www.nbcchicago.com/news/local/Man-Tried-to-Stab-Illinois-Cop-Police-499357901.html
Excerpt:
Authorities say a man holding knives in both hands tried to stab a western Illinois police officer, who escaped injury when the knives struck ammunition magazines below his protective vest.
* so this pos attempted to kill copper and wonder why copper didn’t shoot and kill this attacking savage? Guess copper now have to be “victim” before using deadly force if they are not maimed or killed first!
more command changes much paler than last change but still a bunch of idiots how can you be DC if you never worked in a district?

Cop pulls - up blah blah blah... he was in HIS car
Verbal direction - blah blah blah...what the fuck precedent are you trying to set? ANYBODY can pull up and state "IM THE POLICE! FREEZE!"???? Call 9-1-1 or use Motorola Solutions if you have access.
You are so fucking stupid! IF you are the police please turn in your fucking star NOW.
