Shooting on Thursday

We're sensing a distinct lack of outrage in the community, so we're guessing this guy deserved it?

• Police responding to a domestic situation fatally shot a man who pointed his gun at police Thursday morning in the Pullman neighborhood, Chicago police said.

  The Cook County medical examiner’s office identified the man as 43-year-old Devon L. Smith, who was pronounced dead at 8:15 a.m. at the University of Chicago Medical Center.

  Around 7:05 a.m., officers responded to a domestic call of a person with a gun at an apartment complex in the 900 block of East 100th Street where an armed man was in a bedroom with a woman, police said in a statement.

  As officers attempted to deescalate the situation, the woman fled the room, and Smith allegedly pointed his gun at an officer, police said. The officer then fired, striking Smith, according to the statement.

Sure seems like he deserved it. 

Amazingly, the States Attorneys office is silent while the investigation moves forward....you know, like they're supposed to do. It's been how many years since that office shut the Hell up and waited until there was actual evidence to make statements?
