Sending big healing prayers. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
007 seems to be getting particularly hard-hit the past few years.
He's not some 2 year wonder either, this is one of our better people; a really good copper, through and through.
I'm hurting...
Waller the Baller says no one in custody. Why is that? Answer?… dumb kids playing tactical hero with 3 years on da job. If you accidentally shoot your partner can you still get a merit bump to sarge or dick? Asking for a friend. Remember !!! Danger is no stranger to an Englewood ranger!!! LMFBO!
Permanent disability sounds about right for this officer. 75% of your pay tax free, free medical until 63 because your hands can't function anymore. Best thing no more having to show up to work. Seek outside legal assistance not through the clown attorneys the FOP has.
Things aren’t always as they seem. These kids playing police sure ain’t the “rangers” of yesteryear. Not only does friendly fire hurt, it’s quite embarrassing ..
The Bad Guys are even more emboldened now than they were during the reign of Mayor BugEyes.
I’d sue the city if my own partner shot me…just sayin
BE THE CHANGE!
Let me get this right, the officer who struck his partner has had several run ins with the police off duty?
Sending prayers to this officer!
Friendly Fire !!??!! WTf
The video shows a sh*t bird
laughing at the popo for shooting
his partner!
Reverse Seniority seems to be working
really well and the merit supervisors
continue to sink the ship!!
Could be a case of “ friendly fire”? Goes to show what can happen when you placed snot nose boys who haven’t paid their dues on the street. They think having been on the job two or three years qualifies them to leap frog over more and better qualified officers. Let’s see how this plays out.
"non-life-threatening injuries"
To the average TV watching numb nuts that means inconsequential. Bovine excretion.
There needs to be a medical category called "non life threatening, but very fucked up"
It's a dangerous nation right now.
Just saw the bodycam video on WGN. Idiot shooter had tattoos up and down both arms. He should be fired. He very easily could have shot his partner in the back of the head. There aren't enough bad names to label this fool. Resign asshat. It's been years since you could shoot at a fleeing vehicle. He followed the fleeing vehicle with his weapon. Right through putting his partner in his line of fire.
