From Chicago, no less. Read it all, but here’s the executive summary:
Just 18 minutes before the shooting, around 10:30 p.m., a gunman robbed a man near the corner of Fulton and Kilpatrick in Austin and drove off with the victim’s gray 2025 Toyota Corolla, according to a preliminary CPD report.
At approximately 10:43 p.m., two women were robbed at gunpoint in the 2500 block of West Haddon in Humboldt Park. The victims, both 27, told police they were outside when a car pulled up, and a man exited the vehicle with a firearm, a CPD spokesperson said. The man demanded their valuables and fled with the victims’ purses, phones, and wallets.
For his third and final act, the robber steered the hijacked Toyota onto the 1400 block of North Artesian at 10:48 p.m. He decided to try to rob a 36-year-old concealed carry holder who was unloading a vehicle on the block, according to CPD.
As the robber displayed a gun and demanded the victim’s property, the victim drew his own firearm and shot the robber multiple times in the chest and head. EMS transported the robber to Stroger Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
I’ve heard of the “three strikes” principle, but this one takes the cake. Clearly, our little 18-year-old choirboy played his property redistribution game just one time too many.
And if you didn’t get the giggles at the “multiple shots to the chest and head” thing, we can’t be friends.
of course our hero deserves the key to the city but then again, who would want the keys to ChIRAQ?
Hearts and mind is the way to go. Two in the chest and one in the head.
