Armed Offender Shot

  • A Chicago police officer shot a man early this morning who authorities said pointed a gun at the officer as he was chasing the suspect in connection with a nearby shooting.

    No officers were hurt during the police-involved shooting, which happened about 12:45 a.m. in the 1900 block of North Karlov Avenue on the Northwest Side.

  • That vehicle stopped, two men got out and ran, police said.The officer gave chase. During the pursuit, one of the suspects turned and pointed a gun in the officer's direction, police said, and the officer shot him. The suspect was taken to an area hospital. His condition was not immediately available.

    His gun was also confiscated.

    The suspects were fleeing a shooting that left two people wounded at a gas station at Armitage and Pulaski, not long before their encounter with the officer, police said. Their conditions were not available either. No charges have been filed.
Gee, no "a gun was recovered at the scene"? We're all the way up to "confiscated." Maybe that meeting with the media actually meant something?

Nice job Officers! Never violate Rule #1; go home safe at the end of your shift. Rule #2; never second guess yourself. If you are presented with a threat you deal with it. Remember, him or me. The only viable option is HIM. Anything less would violate Rule #1.

I'm glad you guys are OK and keep up the good work. Be safe out there Officers, your life may depend on it.

His gun was confiscated and not "recovered from the scene" because someone else (not the police) was shot.

Hey SSC just wanted to share somthing with you. Get this headline on the front page of the DRUDGE REPORT "Chicago cop tases junior high school students...". BUT IF YOU CLICK ON THE LINK TO THE STORY YOU GET THE ACCURATE STORY "A police officer that was assigned to Kankakee Junior High School is accused of using a Taser on several students during a demonstration.Kankakee police said the officer used the weapon on at least three boys who volunteered to get shocked during a classroom demonstration, according to the Chicago Tribune.
I am sick of there being no accountability with the fucking media !!!! Legislation needs to be passed or something in reference to inaccurate reporting. Can the FOP go after the DRUDGE REPORT? I just feel real bad for you guys. I'm a copper from the burbs but you guys really get shit on daily. Keep your heads up and stay safe !!!!

'His gun' is conclusory, taking as fact that it belonged to the offender. I'm surprised the media wrote it that way. Good for them, but I suspect it was an error that snuck past the editor. That said gun was in fact the bad guy's gun was always the presumption I made when reading "a gun was recovered at the scene." I think most people with half a brain presume that to be the case as well. To me 'confiscated' is troubling language. It sounds as though the bad guy was in lawful possession of the gun and it's been 'confiscated' until further notice. 'Recovered' is better. Evidence is 'recovered.' Unauthorized beverages are 'confiscated' upon entering a sports venue. Sorry to go all word nerd, but I'd temper the celebration. To me it reads as one step forward, one step back. And I suspect that step forward was done in error.

I am glad he made it out ok. It's a dangerous situation to run after someone while they may turn around and try to kill you with a gun. In the end, the good guy went home and the bad guy didn't.

025 is getting worse and worse. And all of the shit is now spreading to the 16th district. The area from Cicero to Austin and Belmont to Irving Park is all shit. Mostly latino gangbangers from 025.

In a few years, the North side of Chicago may look like it did in the 1980's with patches of neighborhoods that are gone to the shit.

Whoa... the police officer was a guest speaker in the classroom and asked for students to volunteer to get tasered... Jr High kids ages 11 -13 years old. The po tasered the kids and the paramedics had to be called because one of the kids had a heart condition and asthma...

I don't normally encourage contacting the unions or politicians, but I agree with this post.

Maybe if we demand Weis, our unions and maybe our politicians go to bat for us on this, they will.

Gosh, where is a terrorism expert when you need one? Oh, wait; isn't there a $300,000+/yr expert sitting at 3510, just waiting to jump into action on criminals like this one?

What a shame that the POS won't be taking a dirt nap, but excellent job by the officer. I'm glad the officer got to go home to their family.

You all be safe out there.

On a sad note, a member of the Philadelphia Highway Patrol took his own life last night while driving his truck. He was on the job for 20 yrs and leaves behind his wife and three children.

The officer involved needs to practice that marksmanship, I'm thinking. Good job, other than that.

I'm also thinking that Yusef Douglas' picture should be passed around amongst the CPD and posted elsewhere (like on this site). We need to know the enemy.

See the media doesn't care when they shoot each other. What you don't understand is the media NEEDS to spark "I hate the police" it blows up their online blogs and sells papers! Seems the more people shot the more federal money is granted as well. Thats just the way it is. Look how many hits there are when they shoot each other compared to police involved. Just like the 80's song Dirty Laundry with the media...hahaha...Damn Im funny!

The offender in this shooting, Kenneth Washington is the same little punk we use to lock up 8-10 years ago doing stick ups, UUW, and PSMV. He was part of crew of 9-12 year olds that targeted older hispanic victims in 2535's beat, the crew all had tattoos at that age, as well as "proud parents." I'm surprised the POS is still alive, Good Job DJ!

How dare that lackey lease two cars from a clout -ridden vendor and NOT warn the boss that he now has two cars at his disposal that the brainiac boss used on a daily basis. How could God not give the boss the brains to question why two cars with different plates used at different times of the day? God is at fault! The lackey is at fault! They will pay!

well it APPEARS now that Mr Douglas(Yusef) has taken an IP address and reported it to Chicago Police for get this terroristic threats.It APPEARS that Mr Douglas labels all white people that dont agree with his twisted spew a "terrorist".
It further appears that Mr Douglas has cut and pasted a picture of someone who made a FACTUAL comment regarding a burglary(oops Im sorry Douglas calls that a Black on white protest crime)in Florida where the OFFENDER was a multiple felon. Good news is the felon is now going to be serving concurrent sentences. Gee....guess it was yet another edition of Goof balls gone wild...From what I read Yusef Douglas takes delight at stirring the pot then whining to the police when the pot boils over on him.
