Possible shooting in Lakeview

Police are investigating a potential shooting in Chicago’s North Side, Lakeview neighborhood.

Around 5:27 p.m., a 911 caller reported shots fired near (1400) West Waveland and (3700) North Southport Avenues.

According to police dispatch, the complainant said several white males were involved in the shooting.

One offender was wearing an orange shirt… another was wearing a black shirt… and third man was wearing a white shirt.

One of the suspects was carrying a tennis bag and the butt of a rifle appeared to be protruding from the bag, said authorities.

The 911 caller followed the supposed shooters on foot, but lost them, said police. 

A responding officer said people in the area heard the purported gunshots, but there were no reports of property damage or injuries; and there was no indication shell casings were found in the area. 

At 5:39 p.m., a citizen on the 3600 block of North Southport, which in the area of the alleged shooting, requested a police supervisor.

However, it's unclear why a supervisor was requested.

  1. ^ City wide "gun ban". Hey, I'm not pro-gun but look at what just happened in Seattle and Toronto.

    I'll bet it was just gramps fox huntin' in Lakeview though. That's what it was.

  2. How annoying, even the White trash are carrying guns. Maybe they should go cause trouble in the South side.

  3. ^ Possibly the Section 8 that has dispersed throughout the entire city?

    "White" has many, many different meanings now....."Latino", "Arab", "Cuban"...even I noticed. Check your census questionnaire. You might be enlightened a bit (if you didn't use it to write down your Link card confirmation # while still being afraid of "da man").
