Darn those police anyway. Can't we just blow whistles and shout loudly instead of defending ourselves and the public from murderers?
- Two people died after being shot this afternoon by a gunman who then exchanged fire with Chicago police officers in the South Side’s Chatham community, officials said.
Neither the officers nor the gunman was wounded. The gunman and an alleged accomplice were both being questioned Friday night by detectives, but no charges have been filed.
The shooting occurred around 3:30 p.m. near 82nd Street and Cottage Grove Avenue. As many as three beat patrol officers were talking outside a bank near 83rd and Cottage when they saw a man shoot a woman, then open fire on a man she was with, officials said.
A double murder in front of three officers and not one of them blew a whistle or waved their arms or used a Vulcan Nerve Pinch to stop the gunman and his accomplice. For shame you trigger-happy police.
P.S. - good job officers, but don't tell Frank Main we said so.
