Kidnapper Shot, Killed

Still a lot to be investigated, but so far it appears the police acted heroically:
  • A man was shot and killed by Chicago police Monday morning after officers entered a Northwest Side apartment building where a man and a woman said they had been held after being carjacked in Elgin, authorities said.

    An off-duty Chicago police officer saw the couple, both handcuffed, running down the street in the 6200 block of West Grand Avenue in Belmont Cragin around 6:45 a.m. They told the officer they had been held in a building on the block, police said.

    The officer called for assistance, and responding officers entered the apartment building to see whether more people were being held, police said. “An armed confrontation ensued” and a 41-year-old man was shot, according to a police statement.

    He was taken to Advocate Illinois Masonic Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead, police said. There were no other injuries.
An excellent job by all involved.

Good job officers, on and off duty. You saved people being help captive, brought the offender to room temperature, and most importantly made it home to your loved ones. That’s a good days work, someone give these boys a 5 minute early duck and a pat on the butt!!

Whole story not told?!?!

Why were two people taken from Elgin to Chicago? Was it some drug deal gone wrong? Someone didn't pay their Bills??

They said they knew each other??

Well, just another story in Chicago. At least the bad guy is dead.

Clean work. Didn’t some people (or folks) from that area kidnap and torture a mentally retarded kid a couple of years ago? Didn’t they record some of it and put it on social media? Didn’t they also ask for a ransom and carve on his scalp with some knives? My memory is fuzzy, but I seem to recall there being some bad seeds with some very bad ideas over in that part of town. Thanks for getting this one off the street.

The crazier thing is that there are criminal enterprises that operate like this in and around Chicago on a regular basis. The Chicago Police Dept has ZERO interest in going after these types of criminals. More important is the shootings in the neighborhoods. Its an isolated incident, think again. If that off duty didn't see the 2 victims they probably wouldn't even go to the police for a report. All we do is put band-aids on broken arms.

"Whole story not told." Indeed.
Kidnapping, combined with the town and Chicago neighborhood involved, gives the incident a South of the Border feel. Sinaloa anyone? People smuggling? Drugs? The mayor needs to rethink her jihad against ICE, which could be an ally in combatting a Cartel staffed largely by illegals. A Cartel that is flooding Chicago neighborhoods with drugs, destroying the lives of the young people she professes to care about and providing street gangs with retail corners to shoot one another over.

And how is Groot going to get her minions to give up there gats? Haven't figured that one out, eh genius? Especially since those 'people' are so ingrained with criminal behaviors that they'd just use sticks if it came down to it. Take away technology and they'll be back to shrinking heads. Can't change the 'culture an sheeit'. It's what they are, no matter how much reparations or whatever pay off that Popeye thinks will satisfy her constituents.

God bless you officer great work, but as Richie rich Daley would say you may be "scuntined!" Like this copper who did his job and looks like Terry Hillard taking another bite of the millions another company and they find this on the copper who saved his life,and the lives of many coppers from this crazy deranged killer with a knife:

Elgin cop who shot Decynthia Clements followed deadly force policy but broke some police rules, report finds

Shitville Central ain’t so Grand.

Used to be such a nice neighborhood back when everybody worked all week, all those factories going day and night, a Saturday afternoon of bocce at Riis, all churches filled on Sunday, going to Twin Jacobs and buying Vista Cruiser.

Ain’t No Pity in Sanctuary City, feral as far as the eye can see.

Lori you should worry about dangerous levels of lead in the water and not about AG Barr and the Citizenship Census question. No one cares what you have to say about that. Fix the lead situation that the Midget stuck you with when he left town. I wonder what's the next surprise from Rahm. If you listen closely you can hear him laughing at you in the wind. When are you going to tell us about raising taxes to fix this problem.

You have no real friends just the Community and the corrupt media. They'll buy any bullshit you got to peddle to the uninformed. We don't believe you or the media. We are dying by lead bullets and lead in the water and you're worried about citizenship. Girl you really are confused.

You can thank Rahm /pos for the sanctuary city and TDLs so illegals can vote and keep the Democrats in power in this corrupt city.
