Police shot a man and three officers suffered minor injuries Sunday near Father’s Day celebrations at a South Side park, officials said.
The man was critically wounded after he allegedly shot at police in the Grand Crossing Park at 76th and Ingleside, police said. The officers, who were not shot, were taken to a local hospital in good condition, fire officials said. It is unclear how they were injured.
Good witnesses, all saying the gunman was armed, shooting in the air and at the police without regard for anyone before being shot. Three officers were also injured in the ensuing chaos.
But guess what else?
No comments open. Even when the police do good work, have the support of numerous witnesses quoted in the article, and are injured in the performance of their duties, the Tribune Company can't find it in their liberal makeup to open the comment sections to a tiny bit of praise from the citizenry. But you can bet they'll have them open the instant there's even a tiny question about police actions. You can bet the house on it.
