Around 10:49 p.m., shots were fired on the 1300 block of North Burling Street -- a block east of North Halsted Street.
Two groups of black males, one in a gray or silver Caprice and another in a gold Impala, fired multiple gunshots from their vehicles, said police.
Authorities said the gunmen were aiming at each other.
According to investigators, the Near North Side gun battle started on the 700 block of West Scott Street.
At 11:32 p.m., Northwestern Memorial Hospital received a patient suffering from a gunshot wound to the abdomen.
The shooting victim said he was shot near the intersection of Halsted and Clybourn, according to police communications.
An officer involved in the investigation said the patient refused to discuss the details of his shooting... however, other officers who claim to be familiar with the patient, said he is known to drive a gold Impala.
A Caprice and an Impala. Hilarious. Chicago blacks are sooooooo 1998. Wish I could get that '95 RWD back they stole from me 15 years ago though. Nice car.
ReplyDeleteSoon they can use that Charlie Chaplan studio in Uptown for set scenes of Chicago's updated version of South Central - titled, Near North.
So did they get 'em in the ankle or butt? Or did it ricochet off a mailbox and hit his big toe?
A Caprice and an Impala. If cops started driving Volkswagen Beetles blacks would start driving them too. Such followers with no creativity. You wear a big white t-shirt, I will wear one also, you have big wheels on your car, i will put big wheels on my car, etc.....
ReplyDeleteAs a side note, these are probably the same punks that beat up that Northwestern Hospital doctor a few weeks ago for fun, now the doctor is saving one of their lives. Ironic.
Same old same old. Every major problem in this country has an easy solution yet no one in power is ever willing to take the necessary steps. In this case, all you have to do is erect inescapable fences around the south and west sides. Then you take all of the guns you can get your hands on and dump them inside within the restricted zone with plenty of ammo. They will all kill each other. Problem solved. I would say to cut down all their trees also to eliminate any distractions but the Chicago version is not even smart enough to know how to swing from them.
ReplyDeleteThere were THREE (3) doctors beat. Your image conscious "media" here didn't report it but DID let it "slip".
ReplyDeleteGig is up Alabama (oops, Chicago). I was really curious as to Obama's infatuation with GM (now Gubment Motors).
Yes, this IS "ironic".
What the fuck is going on? At the root of the problem is the fact that a lot of clubs and bars cater to the ghetto elements coming into our neighborhood. Then once they are done clubbing and partying they will fight, rob, steal, hurt, shoot and kill. It is such a sad state of affairs in our city.
ReplyDeleteKeep them on the south and west sides.
