Off Duty Officer Killed
Headed home after work....and his car and gun are missing:
A Chicago police officer was shot to death two days before his 31st birthday on the Southwest Side early Sunday, authorities said. Just before 3 a.m., paramedics responded to the 3100 block of West 56th Street for an officer shot, according to the Chicago Fire Department.
The officer, a 30-year-old man, was taken to the University of Chicago Medical Center, where he died due to his injuries, Supt. Larry Snelling told reporters outside of the University of Chicago Sunday morning. The officer was heading home after his shift when he was shot multiple times, Snelling said. He worked for the department for six years.
“We lost one of our own today,” Snelling said. “He was just a great officer, great human being.”
He didn’t confirm that the shooting was the result of a carjacking but did say the officer’s vehicle was taken.
Deepest sympathies to his family, friends and co-workers. More info will be forthcoming when it becomes available.

Absolutely ridiculous, of course it was a freaking carjacking at 0300hrs. I hate it so much, we gotta crack down on this stuff AND have the courts actually follow through. So many victims of this dumb stuff. RIP and my condolences, watch your six, lock your doors, and check on your friends/family. Condolences to the family and coworkers.
And after 6 hours, no word from the mayor yet. Not present at the conference with Snelling. NBC has reached out to the mayors office with no word back.
Un Fucking Believeable.
If that's not sending a message of "Fuck You" I don't know what is.
RIP officer🙏🏼
God speed to the fallen brother , deepest sympathy to the family. Hope the perpetrators get there just deserves !
RIP Brother and blessings for your family.
He was a good officer and good guy.
Condolences to the family...
Prayers for the officer, family and coworkers.
Someone once said there are 3 Stages to your relationship with Chicago:
1: You love Chicago
2: You tolerate Chicago
3: You hate Chicago
Listen to the radio calls. Shot spotter alerted to four shots. Then discprency of addresses assuming because of the alley. Citizen called in a man down. Again, radios absolutely suck, back & forth with dispatch about calling a 10/1 or even tracking down his stolen car.
Just a blip on morning news.
Be safe out there.
~not a cop.
This is so sad, and infuriating. Not gonna QB here, if your driving home at night, especially through these crap areas disregard traffic control devices, have your gun ready, and put the phone down. This especially holds true driving home from the PTSC which no matter where your headed your driving through a shithole at some point.
offender's momma getting his kindergarten graduation picture ready to show the liberal news reporter what a good boy he was, he diddin doo nuffin, the police be racist,,etc, etc,,
Carjack attempt or was he followed from the station parking lot ?
This is horrible. We need to make a statement and it starts with the superintendent. What is it going to be? Enough is enough!
RIP OFFICER HUESCA
Rest in Peace Officer Huesca
Maybe Andrea Kersten can go on ESPN to talk about this. She can talk about her share of the blame. When you make the police out to be the enemy, it emboldens the criminals. When you refuse to acknowledge or effectively punish those who commit violent crimes, it emboldens the criminals. This city has given criminals no reason not to shoot the police. They don't see the police as the good guys. They don't see themselves as ever having to pay for their crimes. So things like this happen. RIP to this officer and may his family and friends get peace and justice. To whomever is directly responsible for his death, I hope you die in the street like the worthless scum that you are. As for the mayor, preckwinkle, foxx, kersten, etc., I hope these criminals prey on you soon, and I hope the police aren't around to help.
Once upon a time, not too long ago, stuff like this would never happen in Gage Park.
Civilian here:
Very sorry for his family and his fellow officers.
I won't go into how the demonization of police by the media, politicians and ACLU types leads to this kind of thing. Maybe they can look within their souls to discover that themselves -- if they have any souls.
Rest In Heaven officer. Hope they catch those POS!!
The blood 🩸 of this young officer is on the hands of the Democrat Party. Every single one of these Progressive Democrats allow criminals to remain free or release them early. Don’t believe them when they act all sad and solemn…because they do NOT care! They don’t care about police officers or the innocent citizens who live in fear. Make no mistake…these Democrats are wolves in sheep’s clothing. They may call themselves Progressive Democrats, but they are really Marxists, Socialists, and Democrats. They want revolution….and one of the means to obtain the Revolution is to demoralize law enforcement and the public. Vote Republican. Get your family and friends to vote Republican. In four years, vote for whoever you like. There needs to be a shakeup. May this officer Rest In Peace. May God give strength to his family, friends, and coworkers.🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Rip
Sad.
fake chciago mayor johnson didn't even respond until 8 hrs after the shooting ... only with a written statement .. shame another Officer killed .. even with his coat .,, his blue shirt was visible identifying him as CPD .. then he still was shot
In a Blink of an eye.... he moved to be in Heaven .. prayers for his family
These fucking robberies man. And these bullshit artist politicians with their phony stats. If your driving ANYWHERE in this shithole at night, or anywhere period, you better have eyes in the back of your head and your hand on your Roscoe looking out for white supremacists on the creep.
thoughts and prayers for all
Why is glenn brookes in every media shot or press confrence?
Assswipe fake mayor Johnson plays the race card at a panic presser Sunday as one of the reasons he was mia for 10 hrs with no comment on Officer Luis being gunned down
Shame ..
And people wonder why Police would kill criminals if necessary!
Criminals have NO SHAME!!
Thank you for your service, we will continue your watch. Rest easy brother you earned it. It is with a heavy heart that we have to think about another officer dying. His family, his friends & all of his co-workers my condolences to all of you. I will keep you in my prayers.
This is such terrible news, I feel for his family
I'll guarantee you that if an arrest is made in this case it will be by offenders who should have been locked up if they are adults or juveniles with extensive criminal records. The blood of this officer is on the hands of Kim Foxx and that blimp in Springfield.
Kills me to read stuff like this. But this is why I walked. Every day was a question if a shithead was gonna try to kill me or if I was gonna think about killing myself when I got home. Nobody has our backs. Pension wasn't worth it anymore.
That used to be a really nice neighborhood.
God bless the officer, his family & coworkers. WE WILL NEVER FORGET!

This PO was just speaking at another fallen officers funeral 😔
God Speed.
God Speed
30 years old, he’s still a baby in my eyes.
Very very sad
Boo boo from the media. They always act sad. Give it a couple days and they’ll be back running stories about racist police or excessive force claims by the family members of criminals. One step forward and two steps back. Any progress made by police is always thwarted by Marxist politicians, media, activists, and blood sucking lawyers. God bless all first responders!
If they not going to lockup the criminals they need to lift residency. I Know that was a condition of employment but since the dems and courts are failing to do their job and keep streets safe we have grounds to try and get it lifted. If scum politicians not going to hold up their end of the bargain we should be able to take our families to safer areas.
Get it to arbitration and we have a small chance of winning. Any normal objective person can see the logic and would allow us to bolt.
RIP brother.
As much as I would love for these POSs to never see the inside of a courtroom, being permanently late for their next birthday would satisfy many of us, I’d rather see them caught and given life sentences with no possibility of parole. They may be the king of their cell block, get three squares, medical, etc, etc, but they will never know freedom and those little things that make freedom so precious. Their lives will be filled with torment, confined by bars, walls, and wire. They will become the walking dead going thru the act of living, but in reality dying a little each day, suffering, knowing that living free will be forever out of their grasp.
Prayers sent.
RIP Centurion!
Condolences to the family.
Gage Park Pool - Summer Of ‘66 was a huge milestone. All downhill from there.
Hope those mutts that did this to our fellow Brother get caught. They are pieces of shit. RIP Officer we got it from here.
Retired over 12 years. Hearing this still tears my heart. Wish there were words to say to comfort his family, friends and colleagues, but there are none.
Deepest sympathy and condolences to all.
Of course cone head couldn't resist politicizing this tragedy by blaming it on gun violence and not the savages that caused it.
I’m no fan of the mayor but I was there at the medical examiner’s when they brought the body, and the mayor was there. He also had enough sense to just stand there and keep his mouth shut and pay his respect. I didn’t it would be matter but it meant a lot.
Rip Officer! Very sad, condolences to loved ones & CPD!!! No word from Pfleger?
RIP.
Where is Cuck Gowdie with his explanation?

Brother or sister a tear ran down my face as I read your comment, and I did the exact same as you
Lets stop blaming just the criminal for this action. Yes. The POS should be fully held responsible and punished to the highest extent possible. However, when are we going to start posting the court officials names who allow these REPEAT offenders to consistently walk away time and time again. When there is no punishable consequences for actions, these low life thugs will continue to repeat and carry out violent acts over and over again. Yet, police are getting monday morning quarterbacked for emptying their rounds into an offender who shot at them first? Lets look at how many rounds were shot at this officer? Anything on the news about it? Because sure looked like a lot. Pathetic. Be safe out there brothers and sisters in blue. Its dangerous and will even get worse.
Fuck you Chicago
This city is in criminal chaos under this incompetent racist Chicago administration, we know who continues to ruin Chicago.God bless the men in blue and their losses due the the racist criminals. I have zero respect and much contempt for those that have ruined a once fine city, Chicago.
Very tragic R.I.P Officer may our detectives help catch all involved and make a solid case for them to rot in jail.
R.I.P. brother - God speed
Also gotta watch foot and bicycle traffic. Not to far from the location of this incident at about 830am while waiting at the light several blocks down from kedzie, m/3-4 proceeds to exit the sidewalk and loop around my vehicle as I keep eyes and head on him and mirrors for others, he does the final roll past passenger side as I let him know I'm watching you mf'r but it was like wtf?!?! Its Sunday morning, really smh
So Kersten; does C.O.P.A. have a flower fund, you know where the employees contribute to send flower arrangements to funerals?
Bring back the shotgun teams from the 60' and early 1970's. Stage opportunities for carjackings and then eliminate the threat.
I’m no fan of the mayor but I was there at the medical examiner’s when they brought the body, and the mayor was there. He also had enough sense to just stand there and keep his mouth shut and pay his respect. I didn’t it would be matter but it meant a lot.
4/21/2024 06:58:00 PM
So, his mere presence is the equivalent of paying respect, eh?
And he had enough sense to not speak while there?
Well, that meaning a lot to you = dicksquat to anyone not brain rotted from immersion in democrat shit soup.
Respect is not a democrat trait, not even a little.
Faking it, every it imaginable, is the democrat quality prime.
This turd head can demonstrate respect by hunting down the murderers and presenting their heads in one big bucket to the citizens most aggrieved, aka the Chicago Police Department, in toto.
Sadly he was off duty and well the family is going to be screwed vs had it happen during working hrs
One day the Judgment will come. Each and every politician, judge, lawyer, and anyone else who's hands have participated in the fostering an environment where innocent blood can be shed without fear and with ease will have to give an account. There will be no word games, no technicalities, and no influencing your outcome by money or who you know, and no favorable political party to cover for anyone. Just The Judge and whoever is giving an account.
May he RIP
To my fellow colleagues. Do not buy a t shirt from Never Forgotten by tiktok dipshit cop Mirabelli. This useless bitch has been making money off our slain brothers and sisters for too long.. Donate directly to the family.
NO Cell Phones! NO Ear Buds when on the street! Maintain alertness at all times, whether in uniform or not, whether on duty or not.
The most important lessons are written in blood, not in ink.
Learn from what ( likely) happened and do not repeat mistakes.
Learning from another Man’s death means that he did not die in vain.
We need to get rid of this mayor

Dear Lord,

In Jesus's name I pray to thee.

It's Illinois. Even life without parole doesn't guarantee they won't be out on the streets again. Death may be too good for cop killers, but as long as torture is illegal, it's the best option. Public execution would be a nice way to send a message too. Maybe a firing squad with bad aim.
The usual suspects were the offenders I assume. Sorry but Latinos don’t do such things hardened Hispanic gangbangers don’t do such things. They don’t. As always it’s the usual suspects.
@Kills me to read stuff like this. But this is why I walked. Every day was a question if a shithead was gonna try to kill me or if I was gonna think about killing myself when I got home. Nobody has our backs. Pension wasn't worth it anymore.
Who ever wrote this, i sincerely and truly hope you are in a better place emotionally, mentally, physically and spiritually
Is it now open season on CPD? Beginning of the end if it is. Be careful and watch your 6 at all times.
All the folks saying such an offender would never see the light of day have forgotten already how hard the entire system worked for the Mahaffeys

lived here my whole life, My while family did. Still does. When do I get to experience #1?
Would they have called off the chase if cops had spotted their car? Serious question. It is time to relax the chase policy. This is probably a crew who has had the green light for quite awhile with doing the carjackings and multiple robberies, unimpeded, before they retire for the night. They run the streets, we don't.
If that's not sending a message of "Fuck You" I don't know what is.
4/21/2024 08:46:00 AM
Brandumb Conehead and his staff should've known the rank and file would be watching him and scrutinizing the mayors office response.
Looks like they didn't bother to care
Wow Delray Beach PD must be really slow because within a matter of hours HM had tshirts designed and ready to be sold. Don't worry though, she had permission from the family. Who does that?
I don't live in Chicago, I am not a cop,but my prayers are with you..
I imagine that the People's Law Office and the University of Chicago's, so called Crime Lab, actually celebrate the murder of police officers.
The usual suspects were the offenders I assume. Sorry but Latinos don’t do such things hardened Hispanic gangbangers don’t do such things. They don’t. As always it’s the usual suspects.
4/22/2024 03:12:00 AM
This is completely ridiculous. It's highly likely, given the area where this occurred, that the offenders are Hispanic. It's still very possible they are black, since their carjackings and shootings have spread across the entire city and suburbs. But to say Hispanic gangbangers don't do such things is just idiotic. Guess who's doing the carjackings that aren't done by black people? That's right, it's Hispanics. Brian Strouse was on duty when he was killed by Hector Delgado. I don't know who Emonte Morgan's daddy is, or his mother Evalena Flores' racial makeup, but he killed Ella French and tried to kill two other officers, and he looks at least part Hispanic. Cartel members, who are known to commit pretty much every heinous violent act you can think of, tend to be Hispanic. You think they wouldn't kill a police officer? From the limited info I heard, this officer was wearing his uniform, but it was under a jacket, so the offenders may not have even known he was the police, which is what I'm sure they'll say when caught. Do you believe Hispanic males don't shoot other Hispanic males? Stop trying to excuse a whole race of people as if it's impossible for them to commit a certain crime. People of every race have committed every crime. Don't praise Hispanic gangbangers as being above this type of crime, because they just aren't.

Perhaps not.
If the investigation uncovers that the officer announced his office and tried to stop the crime it could be confirmed as a Line Of Duty incident. With full State and Federal benefits.
4/21/2024 06:58:00 PM
Not a fan of his but he also met with the family yesterday morning. Probably a good idea to be low key
It's open season on everyone.
Everyone includes them.
Take the hint or take a hike.

100% truth
I’ve always said the best was to describe Chicago is a super hot chick with the worst case of mental illnesses you’ve ever seen.
