West Side Shooting
- Four people were shot Wednesday in Chicago....
[...]
Later Wednesday evening, a man was shot by Chicago police during a chase in the East Garfield Park neighborhood on the West Side.
Officers responding to a disturbance before 8:30 p.m. near Springfield Avenue and Wilcox Street tried to stop the man during an investigation, but he ran away, according to Ernest Cato, deputy chief of Area North. The officers got out of their car and chased the man, who then turned toward the police and showed a handgun, Cato said. An officer then fired shots, striking him in the leg.
The suspect, a man in his 20s, was taken to Mount Sinai Hospital, Cato said. He was expected to survive his injuries.
Officers are all okay. Good job.

No officer hurt....it's a win!!!
I’m glad no officers were hurt. But again....
Why are you hardchargers still out there doing police work? Unbelievable how brainwashed they are.
What, you haven’t had enough watching officers getting jammed up recently?
See nothing good happens when you chase. Call back and then.......
A certain person who comments on this blog continuously about Lausch being in the tank for Madigan and the others really ought to read this story. With Lausch at the helm, it appears that Madigan is the focus of investigation. To hell with your tinfoil hat theories about Lausch (who was appointed by Trump).

OT....The driver that left E.J. the night he passed out at the wheel is now driving for Beck!!!! Whats up with that?? Here is some advice for Beck,HE IS A JINX....
I guess the no foot chase policy isnt in effect yet. If he had just gotten away, no one would have been shot \sarcasm

So now another officer has been stripped for placing the offender in a squad car. Wake the fuck up people! Why are you continuing to go out there and stop anyone!?
I bet everyone involved wishes they would have kept driving. Ignore the ghetto nonsense if you want to have a job
Charge him in federal court. The SA is a joke.

"Disturbance" on the wes' side??
Noooooo......
Has Jesse Jackson posted bail for the perp yet?
Smh. Good job in the old days. But in todays climate, why would you chase him. He could have very ell turned with a banana and you mistakenly thought it was a handgun and git yourself in all kinds of dutch. Dont risk it. It is not worth it. How many times do you gotta be told.
OT:Is there any reason why these civilians at central detention, always beef about taking these mentals for the rubber room? Why even have this facility? The majority of the time they refuse prisoners or dog the process.
Chase!!!!!Now you have to prove a gun was pointed at you. Guilty before proven innocent.
Go out and get your blue ISR

Why? Because they’re policemen, and you’re not.

Um, maybe it's because they're not as stupid as you think. Who in the hell wants to deal with these prisoners? Nothing good comes of it. They complain and cause trouble for everyone that works for the department they encounter.
Ugh, this ain’t good. Who’s this guy advocating for?
“...but he ran away.” according to Ernest Cato”
Or is that Ernest COPA ?
Springfield Ave. and Wilcox St. is located in WEST (not East) Garfield Park.
19 to go, come on peoples and folks get busy, 26days to go, LL needs 500 for her first year in the bigs!

Central Detention are the fucking worse. I have been denied there with my prisoner at least 60 percent of the time. They even on several occasions try to deny a prisoner that we sat at the hospital for hours before even heading their way. Being a wagon unfortunately I had to deal with them a few times a week. The civilians there absolutely horse shit.
Like the motivational poster says...Aim higher.

Sure thing and don't worry you have SJW Charlie-Horse Beck and Little Larry the Toad to back you up. What could go wrong? And the cops haters at COPA, they won't bother you at all either. They just funnin. So chase, chase, chase like Starsky and Hutch. You still be the po-lice but it's not the 70's anymore.
OFF TOPIC:
This is the type of INTERNATIONAL news a merit Superintendent can generate
Keep this in mind new guy even thou we know you have to pick a woman for GROOT.
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7758307/PICTURED-Security-guard-filmed-kissing-drinking-fired-Chicago-PD-chief.html
The best pick is in the article are of EDDIE and GROOT with the cheating FEnner all on stage at HQ on city time talking about how great the merit ED is.
sad to be cuckolded and not know!
I rarely disagree with you SSC, but this was not a good. So far police are lucky, we will see.
All I know is the short ST story you referenced and you quotes.
Also note, my use of "Dude" applies to black, white and brown assholes.
West side cops sent to disturbance call, dude runs, cops chase. Why?
Running from police is NOT reasonable suspicion of anything. Every reasonable person runs from the police, so say CC judges.
Even if the those involved in the original disturbance shout, "He got gun", "He kilt someone", etc, Who hangs onto these witnesses.
Dude displays gun, POs shoot, hitting him in the leg. No mention of how many shots fired.
Since we are taught to hit center mass, 5X, a leg hit is actually a miss. (Legs are outside the 21 needed of 30 to qualify.)
Behind the offender, at that hour, how many women were going to church, kids playing outside, etc
BIG RISK! Big potential problem.
And of course, the community will swear dude never had a gun in his life, despite FB.
Police body cam: probably all sort of shaking & blurred. Probably Cop gun blocking bad guy.
Then consider, dude never had a gun, police never shot at him.
Dude makes like a decoy rabbit, cops chase. Police catch him. Also following are a dozen iPhones.
Dude doesn't want jail today. Police legally over come. Never looks good on TV.
Offender in hospital, Police in the station, what's the charge? Dis con? Agg Bat to police? Resisting? Overdone.
Could I do better? Maybe a little. Remember , on every call you risk your physical safety, job/pension and your freedom.
The call was screened by call takers: disturbance, not man w gun, rape in prog, etc.
We drive safely to scene, obey all rules of the road.
Upon arrival dude runs. We stand still, noting a discription, if possible. We interview those present, determine
what happened, if any crime was committed, get dudes name, nickname, crib address, etc.
If dude committed a crime we send a flash and write case report.
Could a Monday morning review of us cause us a problem? Absolutely yes!
We could watch the grandson's of Richard Speck, John Wayne Gacy or HH Holmes etc ,
while they continue in the family business , run from us while we interviewed witnesses.
We will just play the odds.
Cato has a girlfriend partner when they were detectives. When he made commander he put her in merit Sgt. She is as dumb as a box of rocks. Good job Cato.
Yeah right bet your first in line to buy their benefit tickets. Real police in CPD are an endangered species. But go ahead and be the real police, but, do not complain when you get jammed up. Not a matter of if, but when it will happen. Wake up fool.
Won't happen to me I got Clout. Until it leaves you high and dry. No one has your back these days and that includes a lot of partners.
Keep doing stupid things your gonna win stupid prizes.
Stop working you morons. Yes you will now have to do the COPA thing. Even though a shooting is justified they look to get you on anything and everything. They are going the whole 9 yards now with every shooting. You WILL get sued. Of course it’s all part of the game and not the end of the world it’s still going to be a teeeible process. Even the strongest of cases get turned around by a slick lawyer who always puts doubt that you did your job. That will lead to stress even though you did the right thing. All of this just to save..... the ghetto. Think about that. Just to save the 011th district. Is that neighborhood or the ungreatful residents worth YOU loosing anything?? Not dramatics but is it really? Don’t give me the I have a duty, and I’m proud to do my job crap.. think real life. Are you actually willing to die for the 011th district? Loose a job over the 011th district or have any stress in your life caused by anything happening g in 011? If you answered yes to any of those questions and it is worth dying or loosing your job or having stress over 011 then you need to seek help because you have severe mental problems or are just plain stupid and ignorant. Stop working hot shots. Live your life and get paid. Stress will kill you. I learned that when I was 36 years old in this job with 14 years on. I had a massive heart attack while working. I was a runner and a gunner. Always doing overtime. Always staying late. Always getting into shit. Always going to court. Not getting enough sleep and going hard at work. Dr said stress and the lifestyle at work was a direct contributor to the heart attack. I came off the medical, left tac and slowed down on a beat car with Working the desk or lock up occasionally. It’s done wonders. 11 years later I’m almost to retirement. Live. Don’t let this job kill you. Don’t let the ghetto kill you by working too hard for them. They don’t want you working for them.
Good job Officers it's nice to see there are still some Police on the CPD.
Cato wasn’t a merit lieutenant. He made it off the list. Hmmmm!
Oh! Did I forget to mention he is embedded within the lie-tenant cheating scandal?
OT....The driver that left E.J. the night he passed out at the wheel is now driving for Beck!!!! Whats up with that?? Here is some advice for Beck,HE IS A JINX....
I hope you don't think he is with a driver 24/7.
