Big "Whoops"

  • A Chicago police officer was injured Thursday afternoon when he was struck by another police car as officers were pursuing someone who had just thrown a gun out of a car on the West Side.

    Police were near the 1800 block of South Drake around 1:10 p.m. to monitor a “gang funeral” when officers saw someone toss a gun out of a car, Deputy Chief Ernest Cato told reporters.

    Officers tried to pull over the vehicle, but the driver took off. One of the officers got out of the squad car to try to spot the car on foot.

    “When he entered the alley, at approximately the 1800 block of Drake, he was struck by assisting units,” Cato said.
We're told that the officer rounded a blind corner and was struck a glancing blow by the squad car. Immediate aid was rendered and he was rushed to the hospital for treatment of a concussion and possible broken bones. An accident that could have ended badly - but an accident nonetheless.

Be careful out there. Best wishes for a speedy recovery.

(Sure Joe, whatever you say. Now we KNOW we can't
trust you. You LIED. You worked with Whistleblower when
you were V.P. under Obama, that long ago. Forget the corny
Margaret Thatcher public gaffs. You know what the F is going
on. The only one you didn't mention was the Whistleblower.
Now you HAVE to. Happy Friday, Amtrak Joe.)

Things like this happen from time to time when you’re out there working. Something very similar occurred about 14 years ago in Englewood and I caught the paper. Thankfully everything turned out OK . Best wishes for a speedy recovery.

Which UUW will probably not have charges approved, thrown out of court, or plead down.

Keep chasing cars, it’s really paying off....

We need to just let the criminals do whatever they want. This city endlessly fucks us and now there isn’t even incentive. We should strictly do reactive policing until they realize swiping is the issue. Also if they implement 6-2 like it’s rumored to happen, I for one will do nothing. I’m on tac. I will do next to nothing. I will likely long form a suspended once every other day and do do shit else the rest of our 9 hour tour, all the while filling out applications to transfer to another department. I’ve gotten injured in a foot pursuit a few years ago, and it’s a nagging injury that randomly impacts me. It wasn’t worth it. At all. IOD was cool but it’s something that I carry for life and it’s not worth it.

And if that gun was not recovered and later used to kill a cop, you’d sound like a real asshole.

Nevermind, you already do.

I just hope the Officer makes a full recovery. I heard there were two broken ribs and a broken sternum. Just remember sometimes we carry our injuries until we leave this world. This job isn’t worth getting all broken up. I know several officers who never fully recovered and are regretful about getting permanently injured.

Shout out to the 010th district tac team who, just after this incident, while 2 of the offenders that caused this incident were still at large, came in with a handful of piss bum arrests from the south end, nowhere near the scene. You guys should be embarrassed with the shit you bring in. Worse yet, your Sgt doesn’t correct your bullshit.

Its only legal for these demons to travel anywhere with guns. When they are caught we all know nobody goes to prison. Meanwhile conceal carry honest citizens are one step above a firearm owner with only FOID. Police are told dont point your guns, dont shoot too many times, register your guns, dont chase, and you are responsible if offender kills himself. Liberals, you never wanted to convict the one rockers since Y'all smoke crack yourselves lol. Now stick this patrol mess up your asses.

Monitoring a gang ferneral.
Ok.
Tell me, was this a Dept sanctioned detail in order to boost some activity numbers?

The sad reality is that it never, ever seems to sink in...is there’s NO PENALTY FOR UUW.
Nothing more than a recovered weapon, couple misdemeanor CB’s, a COPA booth review and maybe 3 days of ouchie convalescence.
No OT, No court, No work schedule/assignment guarantee.

Traffic court?
ANOV?
FOID RedFlag?

One thing for sure is that the repeat Cook Co justice involved feral community member will have to steal another hundred or two solid dollars to get another, after the Affordable CookCo Disparaging I-Bond.

(Some) Dads will always be dads....
Joe Biden saw The Godfather in 1972 and saw how
eventhough Sonny couldn't be a real banker, Vito put
him in charge of the family's policy bank in Harlem.
Joe was impressed and said to himself I'm going to do
that myself one day. Sure enough, Hunter gets contracts
in Ukraine and China. Biden, appointed point man to
China and Ukraine by Obama, was determined to be a
rainmaker. Subsequently, about two weeks after Air Force
Two took off from the Ukraine tarmac en route back to
Washington D.C., Hunter gets the $1B energy deal, later
bumped up to $1.5B. And you thought nepotism in the
CPD was a problem with these legacy families handing
down star numbers from generation to generation.

I hope this officer is ok. I don't understand why we are still chasing these idiots. Let the mayor, state's attorney, and the upper echelon of this department get what it deserves. NOTHING. They will come crawling back to us sooner or later.

A speedy recovery to the injured Officer.

Stay out of communerty bidness...

Fun-erals, post fun-eral fish-fry/fashion show
and weave snatch, block parties, birfday parties
and the famous mylar balloon, stuffed animal,
air-brushed t-shirt, beverage bottle and candle
commemorations where members of Dude Inc.
were "birthed into eternity."

LEAVE.
THEM.
ALONE.

The ONLY ONES facing any kind of guaranteed sure-as-shit
sanction/penalty/punishment resulting from communerty bullshit
loudly and energetically going sideways is YOUR big, dumb, blue butt...

Dude is out skating around and having an ice cream...

"La-la-la-tra-LAAHH! Bitchazz Poleece... Fukyawl!"

While YOU are hopping around rubbing your sad, sore
and sorry, freshly kicked ass while belatedly realizing
there's no shortage of m/fers more than glad to do it.

City Hall.
COPA.
ACLU.
Local Media.
HQ.
"Tha' Communierty."
The public at large...

Shoes shined to a parade gloss
from being buffed with the seat
of your pants while you're still
wearing them.

Again...

LEAVE.
THEM.
ALONE.

Let them work their issues out amongst each other
without YOUR interference into THEIR affairs.
