Police Officer Shot Multiple Times; CCL Holder Engages Shooter....

[LongTermGuy]

"An Officer with the Cicero Police Department, a western suburb bordering Chicago, was shot multiple

times following an attempted traffic stop. Officers boxed in the fleeing automobile on the Cicero

Avenue ramp of the Stevenson Expressway. The suspect emerged from his vehicle and began firing at

two officers, striking Officer Luis Duarte four times in his arm, leg, and side.

The suspect then fled north on foot along Cicero Avenue where he fired at a third officer. A CCL

holder

travelling in heavy southbound traffic on Cicero Avenue then exited his vehicle and, along with the

third officer, engaged the suspect. The suspect was struck once and seriously wounded.

“We were lucky enough to have a citizen on the street that is a concealed carry holder, and he

engaged in gunfire with this offender who was struck one time," [Cicero Police Superintendent Jerry] Chlada said."

Good on him! Cops in that dump need back-up.

Dad was born and raised in Cicero during the Al Capone years.

Shitcago is a tad over 200 miles from where I'm at. Close enough to worry about their filth occasionally coming up into Wisconsin, but far enough away and in another state to still feel safe. Capone, Dillinger, all those Chicago mobsters used to love to hang out in Wisconsin...
