• Officers investigating a woman’s 911 call, claiming she was unsafe in a vehicle with people who had four guns, fired shots at a suspect’s car and later arrested a person in Old Town on Sunday evening. No injuries from gunfire were reported.

  According to initial information, the woman called 911 around 6:36 p.m., reporting that she was not safe in a silver car northbound on Lake Shore Drive near Ontario Street. She told a 911 operator that the people in the car had four guns.

  After receiving additional information about the car’s location, police stopped a vehicle matching its description in the 300 block of West Division around 6:50 p.m.

  According to a CPD statement, the car’s occupants refused to follow the officers’ commands and the driver struck one of the police vehicles. An officer fired toward the vehicle, which fled the scene, according to the statement. Police did not say why the officer fired on the vehicle.

With little to fear from actual prosecution or jail time, this has now become common. 

Be careful out there.
