Marine Murdered
- Family members say a former Marine who served two tours in Afghanistan was killed in a Chicago subway tunnel Tuesday after he was pushed onto the tracks and struck by a Red Line train. Al Balde and his daughter came to the Cook County Medical Examiner’s office Wednesday to identify the body of 27-year-old Mamadou Balde, who was killed Tuesday.
[...] Interim police Superintendent Charlie Beck called it a particularly brutal murder Wednesday, saying there is video of the incident from CTA surveillance cameras but he didn’t want to release any details. “We have some very strong leads on that murder, I expect that we will solve it,” Beck said.
Al Balde calls that good news, but says he can’t help but struggle with encouraging his son to join the military, saying he came back with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder after his second tour in 2015.
The Red Line is still out-of-control.

Crime is down!
RIP marine. god speed
If the offender was a Juvenile I'm sure it's one of the JISC regulars. They get arrested, sometimes detained, and Juv Court let's them out the next day. Thanks Cook county justice system. Lots of blood on your hands.
What a shame
So much for getting a handle on crime Mayor with not so nice hair cut.
These brutal senseless murders have happened to numerous people in the US who survived battle zones and served our country. Sad and disturbing. Time to bring capital punishment back
This is so heartbreaking. This young MAN had lived through much sorrow growing up. His mom died when he was three due to cholera. He tried to improve his life and joined the Marine Corps, courageously serving his country. As an infantryman he completed two tours in Afghanistan, while witnessing many of his friends killed. Thus, he suffered from PTSD and his father from guilt for having encouraged his son to join the military.
May God bless this family as they mourn the loss of their beloved family member. Some Easter they'll be sharing, huh?
I hate these RABID DOGS that did this to him. May they rot in hell. Some crimes/sins are unforgivable and the only remedy is capital punishment. Too bad our "justice system" in Illinois is too weak to carry it out.
Signed,
A father and former Marine
I still understand why a restaurant is closed or a tavern with 40 to 50 people in attendance but cta trains can be packed with people by the hundreds, packed in like sardines. I think its racist to allow the poor and homeless to catch covid 19 on them trains.
RIP, Kid. I did four trips to Iraq and three to Afghanistan. It was fairly mild after growing up on the south side. Sure, the volume of fire was much higher at times, but the stupidity and retarded leadership was exactly like Chicago. Civilians died by the bushel and nobody was ever punished.
Blood 🩸 Line. Hollywood should do a remake of the shinning but rather than a ski resort the new film can be shot (no pun intended) from the red line. Of course, Kim Foxx can play herself in the movie.
There's no reason for the red line to be open now. It's a breeding ground for filth and disgust. Disease filled tunnels, vagrant shitbums harboring germs and malice. Rarely used for it's intended purpose even before the pandemic, it serves the general public no good. They have the perfect opportunity and excuse to close it down now and save lives and people's wellbeing at least for a little while. Unfortunately, the little rascals would have no way to come downtown and carjack people then, and that'd just be racist.
How come the LaQuan McDonald Video was played tens of thousands of times but this video isn't seen by the public?
Rip and thank you for your service
It’s a dam shame Afghanistan is a safer spot than Chiraq
For Gods sake, shut the red line down, how much more of these savages can we take
Does anybody Not come home from Afghanistan wit PTSD these days? I didn't realize there was so much combat over there. Is the news not telling us something?
Where is the news media? Why are we not able to watch the video on the news? If it was a policeman who shot someone while defending his life it would be painted in a bad light by the media and played hundreds of times to try to stir up some racial angst. Why are they covering this one up? Is it the “code of silence” within the media again that refuses to show just how violent a certain demographic of people really are?
This murder truly makes me ill!!! I HATE the savages more and more~
My condolences!
RIP Marine, you did your part so Jon well done. May the Angels I’m heaven rejoice. Praying for his family!
The offenders will rot in hell
It is an awful story. There has to be more to this.
The CTA Red Line is so safe. Mayor Haircut will state that she is ‘unaware’ of any danger.
Not much coverage by the news outlets. Nice failure mayor & governor. Keep diverting attention to the virus as it takes the heat off of your.
The red line is aptly named as the bloodletting continues. Thanks Lightfool.
Larry his death is on you for keeping the Red Line open. Sad thing is that is if the POS’s are caught nothing will happen to them. Nothing. Bleeding heart liberals will say it is not their fault, society is to blame.
Why is he he’ll is the Red Line even open.
Beck called it a "particularly brutal murder"... As compared to the murders that are not so bad??? I guess there are nice ways to be murdered he means
God speed, Marine......
And to your father, may he find peace.
And may he have justice soon for the loss of his child.
Girl shot Fullerton Milwaukee no coverage
Lori is afraid to call her feral predator constituents out on behaving like savages. It’s crimes of poverty and she needs the votes. Anyone who votes for her or any other democratic shit bum is insane.
Shut that dumpster fire down NOW...........No video cause you know who is the suspects
Like to see Semper fidelis take on some meaning here
Can't ANY cmdr of mass transit figure out which line and which stations are having the most troubles and need the most patrols? Merit hacks, each and every one of them.
No need to worry, the two fucking idiots will have their usual press conference and blame it on Trump!
All CTA train and bus lines should be shut down from midnight to 7 AM companies can adjust employees hours so they could still use public transportation this would give the CTA time to Disinfect everything
R.I.P. Marine....... Semper Fidelis...
Semper Fi, brother
Someday, when we will look on Heaven's scenes, we will find the streets are guarded by this United States Marine.
More of Chicago values on display.
This is the same redline that the progressive communist media whores were just using to produce a new drama series about a white police officer that shoots a black doctor during his daily commute from work. Hollywood is truly the land of make-believe.
Redline jihadists. We will see what our SA does when they are apprehended.
R they haven a service for him
The Marines should be patrolling the CTA!
Brutal murder all caught on cta cameras. Where is Paul Kursey when you need him.
No media coverage of this murder ,by shithole Chicago, corrupt media.. where is Chicago mayor clown larri ?
Unreal....
Here’s a kid who went out despite all the strikes against him in his early life and tried to make a difference, tried to be a useful member in society and suffered more as a result. Than he does by the hands of some degenerate whose probably never been held accountable for his own shit behavior. May God give this young man peace the peace he deserved!
This pisses me off to no end. These motherfuckers have to fall and fall hard. Life in a cage and preferably the death penalty, "but the courts and Hacks have no balls".
These jagoffs running this town have allowed it to turn into gangsterville. It embarrassing. Hey Groot and Fatfuckster? You have a lot to say about Trump. How about your own home grown gangsters?
Meanwhile the fake nooz is still groveling over Groots hair cut and her decision to shutter the half a dog shops early.
Fatfuckster is busy opening more weed shops. All the Mao little Red Book mob are still busy "taking on the NRA". To bad they dont take on 4 Corner Histler et al. These Democrats suck!
Semper Fi....RIP Brother WPNS CO. 1/7
What a sad ending for a Patriot. No one should lose their life like that.
Deepest sympathy for his family, friends and colleagues.
Why no outrage from the Mayor
Why no outrage from Jesse?
Why no outrage from Flaker?
Why no outrage from anyone?
And where were all the extra officers that were working the CTA?
All the CTA HD camera bragging and no footage on the news to help identify the killers.
I copied this from comments on another post, as it’s relevant here:
OT: 16 year old girl causing disturbance on CTA train at 4 in the morning Thursday gets accidentally shot during struggle with security guards. CTA is outraged and demands security company fire the two security guards involved because the CTA is committed to the safety of it’s passengers. Interesting because the 16 year old was with the two people that killed the former Marine on Tuesday by pushing him in front of moving CTA train. She is also wanted for a beating and robbery on the subway.
And it will only get worse.
are offenders former cps drop outs , cook county inmates , stateville inmates on parole
fake news and cpd failed Chicago , no posting of video or descriptions to warn others about the danger
these criminals pushed a man in front of a CTA train
not one 10 second spot on the news from CTA cameras
What world do you live in...he was In combat in 2013 and 2015..plenty of bad stuff going on...you must not watch the news or read the paper much...my brother lost a foot in Afghanistan in 2014 asshole

havent seen that one yet but heard about it
meanwhile I watch Chicago P.D. fairytale land where most of the offenders are middle aged white men - I've been on this job for a long time and I don't think I've even seen a middle aged white man listed on a case report, much less arrested one
show is a comedy
What tragic murder by the worthless hood rats. Killed a man for nothing. A great American hero, a U S marine was taken from us.
It would be great to see 200 old Nam veteran Marines run the city from Michigan and Congress South and then go west of Western Ave from Roosevelt. In one week the brave and fearless will take back the city, the trash will disappear from city to wherever scum go too.
Let us never forget this Marine !
This is a dream many legit people of big cities have. The scum serve zero purpose....sorry the grape pop industry would go under without them.
I believe the Almighty has a special place for these lib politicians that enabled the scum to run with impunity.
RIP Brother !
