Rifleman fires shot through West Rogers Park apartment window

A gunman, armed with what police described as a rifle, fired at least one shot through a Far North Side apartment window, said authorities.

Starting around 12:22 a.m., several shots were fired on the 6200 block of North Artesian Avenue, near Artesian and Rosemont, in the city’s West Rogers Park, West Ridge neighborhood.

At least one bullet pierced a nearby apartment window, said an officer at the scene.

The shooter was described as a white male, about 6’1”, and 200 pounds.

Investigators said the rifleman was wearing a black T-shirt and black shorts.

Another white male, wearing a white tank top and light-colored shorts, was seen fleeing the scene with shooter, said police.

No further details are available.

  6. Oh no! Was CNR stifled by Phoebe or the GaySTOPo again?!

    I haven't been out there in weeks but Fox News was outside the 7-11 on Halsted/Roscoe and no coverage?

    Maybe Foxy was promoting "civil unions" to those stopping in for a quick bite after lights out night at the Loveshack down the way. I'll bet that's what it was.

  7. Oops, instinct. It was the sexual assault on white women by a black man on the 800 block of Newport. It was just on the TV. The first chick they interviewed stated the LL mantra "these things just happen". Beyond comical now.

    So, I'm curious. If black people hate White people so much here and gay men hate other gay men that they THINK are "republican".......why do you want our sex?

  9. You niggers posting up here in Chicago havent even seen oppression yet! What was done to the natives in this country will pale in comparison to what we want to do to you. "cowboys and Indians"? Shit we haven't even begun to play cowboys and niggers yet. Just wait, we are coming for you ...one by one if need be. God forgives, we dont.

  14. Site appears to be down. Not down per se, but no new content, which is unusual for this site.

    Wasn't the owner of this site complaining of receiving pressure recently?

  17. Seems like you coward ass racist pigs will have to find somewhere else to hold your clan rallies b/c this garbage site is going down the tubes like it should. It's funny how you pussies can come on here and talk all that shit but yet shit your pants when approached on the street by a worthless thug. If you pussies are really as tough as you all are claiming to be then why don't you load up and go flex those little muscles on the west and southside. I won't hold my breath on that ever happening b/c you pussies are nothing but internet tough guys.

  18. All off a sudden you cock suckers aren't allowing rational comments but don't mind posting the racist rants and the word nigger over and over again. How fucking typical. GO FUCK YOURSELVES! THE AUTHOR BETTER STAY IN HIDING OR HE WILL GET HIS FUCKING BRAINS BLOWN OUT!!!

  19. Face it. Our prisons are full of niggers. You will continue to be judged & racially profiled until you people learn how to behave like the rest of us. Now shut the fuck up.

  20. First of all, it's NOT the color of your skin that disturbs us! It's the content of your character. It's your CULTURE of gang banging, fathering children out of wedlock, refusing to work a legitimate job and selling drugs, or worse yet, selling your bodies (all the while praising "God" and "taking mercy on our souls. Pa-lease).

    YOUR CULTURE IS ABHORRENT. Your skin color is irrelevant.

    And NOT all of you are this way; I know many black people who are educated, have a fantastic work ethic and treat EVERYONE with respect, knowing that respect is EARNED not GIVEN.

    If you are a gangbanger, thug, lowlife, then you are a cancer to society, and there is no place for you. May the "self-cleaning oven" take you out.

    And to the black women on this board: QUIT HAVING UNPROTECTED SEX WITH THESE MALE LOSERS. YOU ARE WORTH MORE THAN THAT! If you do this one thing, you will stop the circle of violence.

    It's not rocket science.

  21. Could it be that Timothy Fitz, the poor excuse for a gay man who runs this site finally came to his senses? Could Timothy Fitz have finally realized, by posting crimes committed by whites and Latinos for a few days, that his audience of racists is only fueled by stories about black criminals? Did Timothy Fitz figure out that posts from his site are used by Boystown residents to scare the hell out of each other and give fellow residents and visitors the impression that East Lakeview is as dangerous as Englewood, and that this only serves to drive down tourism, patronage, and home buying in Lakeview?? Does Timothy Fitz no longer feel a sense of purpose and accomplishment in leading an online hate group? Did Timothy Fitz finally figure out that his self-proclaimed agenda of agitating people and starting shit is a worthless, self-sabotaging pursuit?

  22. ^ Every citizen has a right to be aware of serious, VIOLENT crime taking place near their homes. You're most certainly not going to read about this stuff in The Fib. You have your "image" to uphold here afterall.

    Your comment about "tourism" is a prime example of why factual crime reports are blatantly and obviously being hidden. Your greediness here is absolutely astounding. Your lives center around sex, drugs and money. Period. End of story. And the desperation only gets worse in correlation to the declining economic conditions in your city.

    CNR is not the single source of tourists and visitors learning about the VIOLENT crime here, if at all. My out-of-state friends know of it from the NATIONAL media. Yes, your crime in this pocket of Chicago has made national news. Deal with it or put on your liberal rose colored glasses. It's your choice.

    "Online hate group"? Far-fetched. Reality? Definitely.

    I couldn't have said it better! Right on! That culture, sadly, doesn't get it.

    @August 23, 1:32AM,
    You are either Phoebe, now posting as "anonymous" or a delusional black person who never accepts responsibility for their actions or culture and only blames the world for their "whoa is me" life. Obviously CNR is a thorn in the black cultures side and the National news is the nail in the coffin of your city.

  24. Good thing we have the old ugly unwanted queen to tell us what OUR lives are centered around. Thanks for the input nobody cares about. Maybe next time Obama needs help he can call you, since you seem to know everything about everything.

    the reason he called it an online hate group is because of the racist and homophobic posts that litter this joke of a blog, not the reporting of crime. I think that leather choker is on a little too tight; your brain seems to be suffering from a lack of oxygen

  25. @August 23, 2:24 AM: CNR is a garbage blog. Look no futher than the post about Gabby Douglas, the rant about Phoebe, and the posts created by trolling YouTube and cobbling together videos of black people displaying bad behavior, for evidence of that. Are you not aware that Timothy Fitz, owner of the CNR blog, has stated in his blog profiles that he gets off on creating chaos and pitting people against each other? Have you not discerned that his blog posts are purposefully written in a manner that allows him to insense people and welcome their displays of hatred towards African-Americans? Have you not noticed that not only does Timothy Fitz include racial information in his posts but that he creates inflamatory titles and content, and almost entirely focuses on black perpetrators of crime? Have you noticed that not only is free speech encouraged in the commentary area of the blog posts but that blog owner Timothy Fitz welcomes the use of the n-word and other racial slurs and does not, like most other sites, have a mechanism on CNR for readers to flag comments for removal?

  26. Let's see, no reports of "fancy" edjumacated Lakeview East (not just E. Lakeview ya'll) people beating their dogs to death at 3am or up and coming 50+ y.o. "fashion designers" (NOBODY has ever even heard of) stabbing their 20 year junior "roommate" (ahem) to death up to and including 50 times? Let me buy a condo here and have some $20 tater tots across the street too. OMG.

    Enjoy your weed. Do you wonder why the po-po could care less about this area? You reap what you sow.

    Again, CNR is not your problem. Even the Trib had coverage of the absolutely deplorable dog beating death. This story is yours fancy gay people. Own it.

    I think I saw Obama mentioned somewhere up above. Let's bring politics into this (your #2 problem here.... #1 being your drug/sex addiction).

  27. I miss Tim's witty ways...the chap is smart & cultivated in a fun way. His insight & observation are on target. People should not get all bent out of shape over reports or comments. Please go to another site if you do not like this one. There is something for everyone out there. Freedom of Speech...hmmm...People have every right to be alarmed by the crime in Chicago. Their lives, loves,safety and investments are all interwoven in this city. Chicago is being Detroited day by day. It is quite depressing & a striking alarming fact. Where are our taxes going when nothing seems to be getting done? Tim just presents the reports and allows Chicago residents an opportunity to comment. Sometimes the truth hurts & I have to agree with the comments on denial, working hard & abiding by laws. Now how does Chicago prevent the last few good neighborhoods from turning into another Detroit? If things get any worse north side folks will leave the city and that will be the end of the story. Old School Chicago..straight up white lady fan...

  29. @ 9:41pm, I agree I miss CNR. I hope he is okay and starts posting again. The North Side was the last safe bastion in Chicago, and now we are losing it. Please come back CNR. You are great resource that many of us in Chicago use to keep safe.

  33. What happened? Was this website shut down? Is it illegal to report on crime if it happens to implicate a certain race?

    ReplyDelete
  34. Maybe it's not the reporting of crime that's the problem-it's the clan rallies on this site that normal people are against. It might have started as a crime reporting blog, which is fine, but when people stop discussing crime and start ranting about a whole race, even when the subject of a particular story has nothing to do with that race, it becomes a hate fest. I have no clue why you retarded inbreds can't get that through your thick skulls but then again, I think I do. And to the clowns that think crime only happens in Chicago, I say keep thinking that because the safer you think you are in your shitty city, the more you'll let your guard down, and the better it will be when crime comes knocking on your front steps. We get national news here too and know how crime ridden the rest of the country is. Even the gun loving states such as Indiana and Texas aren't faring to well. Indianapolis has been averaging close to 130 murders and it only has a 3rd of Chicago's population. White people are also catching beat downs in Downtown Indy and overall crime is on the rise there yet they can't hire police officers because they have a buget shortfall. Sounds familiar? Houston, St. Louis,Philly, Baltimore, and countless other cities are all infested. If you want a safe city then I suggest moving to Canada or someplace in Europe becasue you're not going to find it in this country unless you enjoy living in Bumblefuck Iowa or someplace. Also, I only see these mini masacres that's been happening around the country continuing so good luck to you. I'm actually enjoying them because the victims always seem to be so clueless and care free.

  37. I'd like to hear more "truth" about this past weekend's "youth" creating havoc along North Michigan Avenue.

    Of course, the Tribune and other P.C. media did not identify the race of the criminals. I guess it was those Swedish kids from Stockholm again.
