Shots Fired

South side:

• Chicago police officers exchanged gunfire with a man while responding to a “person with a gun” call in the South Chicago neighborhood Monday night, according to CPD. No officers were injured, but the suspect is in serious condition with gunshot wounds, police said.

  At about 10:35 p.m., a 911 caller reported that a strange man wearing a colorful hoodie walked up to their home with a gun in the 8200 block of South Shore Drive, according to dispatch audio.

  Within two minutes, officers responding to the call reported that a suspect was running and, moments later, those officers requested an ambulance for the man, saying he had been shot by police. CPD said the officers had tried to conduct an investigatory stop and directed the man to keep his hands visible before the shooting.

  An officer said shots were fired by both the man and the police. A firearm was located at the scene, according to a CPD statement.

Well done Officers, removing the threat to yourselves and citizens without harm to either....only the bad guy.
