Officers reportedly OK:
One person was shot and critically wounded in an exchange of gunfire with Chicago police late Friday in the West Woodlawn neighborhood on the South Side.
At about 11 p.m. police shot a person who fired at them in the 6300 block of South King Drive, said Chicago Police News Affairs [...].
The suspect was taken to Stroger Hospital in critical condition, said Chicago Fire Department spokesman Quention Curtis. The gender and age of the suspect were not available.

Glad To Hear That Officer Is Ok & Shithead Is Critical
OT
The G 20 Debacle Made The Shitford Courant Out Here In Ct & Those Alleged Journalists Will BARELY Cover The Local News (Sad)
It Makes The MAJORITY Of Us Good Po's Look Bad For The Actions Of A Few, It Made Me Sick To See It
Good Job Officer, You went Home Tonight & Just Maybe You Guys Will Have 1 Less Link Card Recipient Out That way Soon.
Stay Safe Out There, Back Each Other Up ALWAYS
"The gender and age of the suspect were not available."
Gee, let me take a wild guess.
Gender, Age and race was not available, right?
130am post. I have never worked in 003 but have you seen the openings there the past few periods? Over 30 openings!! Obviously there is a hatred for that shit cmndr. Dont talk shit about the guys or girls who work shitty districts. I get sick of coppers talking shit about other coppers. Its always guys from TRU or MSF that think their shit dont stink. Half of the clowns couldnt even fill out a case report with their 3 days on the job. If you are one of the lucky ones who has an even better gig then kiss your clout and shut your mouth. NEVER talk shit about the guys in patrol especially in shit districts
Weak leadership at the (chain of command) commander level puts every LEO in the link below her at increased risk.

Ah, the good ol' days. When a district needed a little help from their friends, the task force was inserted. Saturation missions. By night 3 of the op, you could fire a cannon down the street, and not strike a malefactor. (They were either in jail, or hiding.)
Does MSF do this? Just askin'!
The media created a sketch of a male trying to lure children into a car and repeatedly said the offender's race being WHITE. Why is it if the race is white the media will disclose it but otherwise................
Months ago, ,,,
there were many postings about officer safety in 003 with the shortage of manpower, a leadership problem that extends beyond just the assigned Commander, who is obviously been in a retirement mode for a while now, and finally the lack of support that needs to be continuous to fill the major gaps present.
It seems from some of the postings that officers are starting to blaming each other for not doing enough in 003 and the frustration is growing to the point that "eyeballing" is talked about from time to time...
Let me tell you this:
Officers:
Do NOT and I MEAN do not start blaming each other. Your main goal is to go home safe at the end of the day.
Part of our responsibility is to patrol streets that many supervisors -Exempts- are even scared of driving through.
We are basically the lonely rangers out here. We Appreciate the help we've been getting from T.R.U, that is when they are deployed here... But every one needs to understand that we need help everyday on all three watches and 7 days a week.
The week structure that everyone is part of is creating a mold of CYA- especially for us people who've been here and did not leave...
The worst part is the news of who we might be getting as a replacement for the current Commander. Every copper with a good common sense realizes that a commander does not ASSIST you by going out there and backing you up on these senseless and dangerous jobs!!!
If a commander can SHOW you moral support and fight for you Administratively, then you know you are in a good place.
So, the question is for me personally is:
How long do I have to wait for descent commander?
I strongly hope it's NOT one of the Pre- Chosen ones as this will make me leave 003. I would like to think that the few of the willed and the strong ones left in 003 want to stay if HQ does the right move here.
It is also obvious the we are beginning to lose trust in the immediate managers and supervisors as well as Area 2 since no one seems to display any affection towards us.
By the way,
Affection = manpower
come on down exempts, show us your support, address roll calls, explain to us were we stand on officer safety, etc, etc, etc...
I hop you do that sooner than later and BEFORE you show your faces with the NEW king or Queen SELECTED to reign the 003rd district ruins.
I still have faith but " Can't Hold On Much Longer"!!!
Great job by MSF......Good guys 1- Bad guy 0!! We are thankful you guys are out there roaming around our district. Finally J-Fed got it right with creating MSF.
Slightly Off Topic:
Everything's going to be alright now, because the Mayor has Mike Tyson on the case. He starts this off by calling Daley "The President"; whose brilliant idea was this?

Does anyone know what happened to the male that plunged to his death from a parking garage on Adams in the Loop.
A poster on Chicago Breaking News said the man was pushed after a mugging.

You got that right! You have a handful of officers doing work. The rest are no where to be found. It's scary.
3rd dist po's are good people and hard workers! Your dispatchers appreciate you. Be safe guys.
Glad the police officers are safe. Watch ur backs out there. These idiots don't care if we live or die shoot them before they shoot you.
Oh and happy sweetest day!! :o)
The Queen is on furlough.
Don't blame her for this. Why are recruits being sent to other Dists. when 003 has so many vacancies?
Why has 35th st allowed this?

Gee, maybe they are short 30 pos, the neighborhood is on fire, and their commander is inept?
The SunTimes reported that incident inaccurately. The offender did not shoot at the officers. The officers responded to the scene and saw the offender shooting at a group of males. They announced their office, and ordered offender to drop his weapon. Offender did not comply and turned towards the officers with gun still in hand. The officers again ordered offender to drop his weapon. He didn't, they fired striking offender in the leg. Offender tried to flee still with gun in hand and fell several feet away. GET IT RIGHT SUN TIMES!
Gender age and race not available until they find a picture of the pos in a cap and gown.
It was a mystery. The suspect/victim/GSW receipient was unidentifiable after a barrage of gun play rendered the corpse a bloody mess. All that could be ascertained was a human-like form, covered in blood and mumbling the following, "Hibbidy-jibbidiy and a ratta-tat-tat."
the offender was a 19 yr old male black with 2 GSW's to his right hip and thigh. He is NOT in critical condition he is in the lock up in 005. The PO saved his own self from being shot as well as his sgt and and another PO. Very brave act on his part. Put himself in line of fire then acted as he should have. Very nice job. Lots of useless exempts came to muddy the waters but all ended well.

Take an educated guess of the offender.
A police helicopter flying over the Monkey Hill favela (slum) in northern Rio de Janeiro was shot down by ground fire. Two police officers were incinerated in the crash. R.I.P.
Rule out Chicago's violent crime as a factor in the first round knockout for the 2016 Olympics.
Check Rio homicides and violent crime if you have doubts.
To the officers in 003:
I used to work in that area.(not a cop)
How is that youth center that Gary Comer built doing. Is it keeping the kids off the street. Mr.C poured so much money in that neighborhood. Wonder if it has helped even a little.
Police should start using ROCKET-LAUNCHERS against these pieces of $HIT
Instead of calling the CPDET just call Streets and San. for the clean up!
Since the city has a deficit budget and the MIDGET wants to save $$$$$ maybe I should pass it through the city council- maybe they approve it
All they do is get these big supervisor salaries and kick back part of it to the Dilly-Daley/DemoCRAP party, its Pay to Play. Everybody knows it, except, apparently, the Feds. Why else , and where else, would so many incompetent people in one organization get promoted so highly?
***************
Superintendent,
I am not sure if you have been made aware of a recent altercation in the audi home, where three sworn members from the 010 district were unwillfully detained, one of which being a supervisor. What is going to be the departments response? What are you going to do to protect us? My understanding is a GOCR has been generated but this needs to be addressed to the masses? We are often mistreated and abused at work by offenders but when it is done by officials abusing there power and playing games my question is What will you do to reclaim the respect that has been taken away by these officers doing the right thing??

UNFUCKIN BELIEVABLE, He was voted out as a cheating disgrace and your going to honor him, FOR WHAT!!!! Next you'll be giving sell out Donahue a party. As a Proud Italian AMERICAN Police officer for the past 22yrs I cannot believe you cant find, Lets see, an Italian to Honor. What a joke of an organization. Im pull my membership.
Even after all the bs they put u through in 003, u still letting them have RC, nice shot. Now if u could just improve on ur driving!
If gender, race and age was unavailable, are we to assume that the suspect in question was an Asian female, 45 years of age?
Why was Burger Queen suspended for 7 days???????
Great job officers...Stay safe and remember...
We are only here to document the end of civilization!
Why are recruits being sent to other Dists. when 003 has so many vacancies?
--------------------------------
It sounds like that particular district would be a really bad place to put a new recruit. This may be a case where the higher ups are doing everyone involved a favor.
You working guys and girls hang in there in 003 and make sure each of you go home safe.Partners take care of partners and back each other up.Am praying for you guys.I do wish the exempts would wake up and get back to good old police work.It was much easier back then.We have a problem there,take care of it and it was done.
Hey 01:30 AM.......If you didn't notice, 003 doesn't have any police!!! Over 30 openings for the last 7 or so months, and that is just the posted vacancies. The "commander" and I use the term loosely is still there though.....Do what you can and stay safe if your stuck in 003.
Great job by MSF......Good guys 1- Bad guy 0!! We are thankful you guys are out there roaming around our district. Finally J-Fed got it right with creating MSF.
10/17/2009 09:05:00 AM......
It wasn't MSF, just one of the midnight workers... that narrows it down to a small handful.
Why was Burger Queen suspended for 7 days???????
-------------------
LIEUTENANTS AND ABOVE ONLY GET SUSPENSIONS IN SEVEN DAY BLOCKS.
To any coppers in 003: disregard any of the shit-talkers here. Take care of each other, fuck everything else. 35th street needs to get off there ass and get you some help! Down 30? I bet your down closer to 60 in real numbers. Keep your heads down!

You mean, 'GET IT RIGHT NEWS AFFAIRS.'
Or do you mean, 'UPDATE THE LINK SCC.'
As soon as a statement was issued from 35th and Michigan, the Sun-TImes ran an updated story. Find something else to complain about.
What is it with some asshat that keeps trying to give credit to MSF for all the police shootings when they have nothing to do with it? Has happened on multiple occasions in the past few months. I have no problem with MSF, but seriously let it go. There are great police all over the city. Give credit when its due, don't try to make up stories saying what a great job you did. I really hope its just some troll trying to start shit.
I am a CPD officer up North. 003 District officers stay safe. Watch over eachother like nother!

ROFL! You made my morning..that's hilarious. And it looks like you guessed it right, although the guy's not that injured (unfortunately).

WTF??
2 in the leg-- Why not 2 in the HEAD!!
Instead of being let back out on probation in a few weeks, the pos could be planted in BurrOak.
To any who have commented here...
Quit dogging the officers in 003.
What the F would you do? Sure, you can slap your keyboard and flippantly give the business commenting on the officers, but please check yourself.
Address the problem in its entirety, BUT DO NOT think that your scorn should be put at the officers.
Complacency?
I bet your ass that if you were in 003 and had at least 30 openings, you would be doing things a bit differently as well.
So riddle me this...
You know that backup is gonna take a little longer to get there...etc.
Blame the brass gentleman.
If people want to play cowboy and save 003, then your mistaken.
You mean to tell me, you're not gonna think twice about how you respond to the situation when your down men on your shift?
Get the F out of here.
Hypocrites if you say otherwise.
Suppport your guys, and walk a mile in their shoes.
Hate the problem but think twice about blaming everything.
The daily activity and goings on in 003 are a 'result' of the larger problem....NOT the problem itself.
The band aid approach to problem solving is always temporary...if it continues for too long it becomes permanent in terms of creating a culture on the streets. The culture is just as identifiable to the bad guys. The streets feel it and know it often before we even talk about it.
Random ramblings from a high school educator...
Much respect to all.
