CHICAGO (WLS) -- A garbage truck operator who is a Concealed Carry License holder shot two would-be robbers, one fatally, on the city's West Side early Friday morning, Chicago police said.
Police said the shootout happened around 5:15 a.m. just steps away from DRW College Prep charter high school in the Homan Square neighborhood.
Police closed a portion of South Homan avenue early in the morning as they investigated the shooting.
A 28-year-old man working as a garbage truck driver was outside in the 900-block of South Homan Avenue when two other men approached him, took out a gun and announced a robbery, police said.
Police said that's when an exchange of gunfire ensued between the suspects and the victim, who has a valid FOID card and CCL.
One of the suspects, 42, suffered a gunshot wound to the head and was pronounced dead on the scene. The other suspect, 20, suffered a gunshot wound to the neck and was taken to Mt. Sinai Hospital in critical condition.
The victim was uninjured but taken to St. Anthony Hospital in good condition for an evaluation.
I commend the human body to be able to take on abuse for as long as it does, but like all systems, it eventually breaks. My dad was diagnosed with lung cancer a year or so ago. For a long time he was absolutely fine. Incrementally there were problems here and there, but overall he looked pretty normal. For a second we thought he might be in remission from how well he was doing. He eventually got a surgery to get some of it removed. And to a point we thought it would be succesful.
And then all of a sudden the symptoms went from barely an issue, to what the fuck just happened. He's been decreasing his eating considerably since he's out of breath eating. But what make his chest weird is that it doesn't work right. When he breathes in his lung volume decreases, like the lungs are vacuum cleaning the sides of the ribs. And when he breaths out his chest expands out from the lower side. So his lungs are working in a weirdly opposite way of how they should. It's like gripping a balloon on one side and having all the volume displacement on only one side of the balloon.
The doctor said he would be fine for the most part, and his cancer was slow growing and not that severe. Maybe he's just trying to make him feel better, who knows. But the way his lungs are functioning makes me think he's not long for this world. Fuck you big pharma and fuck you full of shit doctors
...the tariffs are a shot in the foot, but then again "ears" get it once in a while too.
From what I just learned re the reasons for the tariffs is that all Trump was requesting from fag trudeau and schlomo Mexico pres was a clamp down on the movement of migrant invaders and the fentanyl (that they're packing), apparently the trade imbalance was to be addressed and negotiated through time...if this is the case then he's 100% justified. And Western leaders are that arrogantly stupid that they are adamant in their defense of the social rot that came with CULTURAL MARXISM.
I have no belief in government at all, everything is controlled and rigged against the common man. I just too bad that what Trump is doing is done so under the watchful eye of a "HIDDEN HAND"...but the ✡️ nose what's going on.
“I'm back btches. It only took 2 fcking days or one and a couple hours you guys and I'm back in the US.”
“See, I told you guys this immigration sht wasn't gonna stop. Nothing, you guys nothing. — We're all gonna come back.”
“I'm back. And I don't give a fck what y'all think. If y'all want to hate me, but sht, I'm back in the US I can smell the, the chicken nuggets, the hamburgers.”
“I just gotta watch out for ICE around this parking lot because those motherfckers be hiding — y'all better not fcking report my fucking account you motherfckers.”
No lookout, trying to grab a 1000 pound object propably bolted to the ground, realizing that your skill of kicking heads of victims on the pavment wont do anything to steal and concrete, run away without taking anything but now having to fear that the cops come after you for atleast 3 felonies.
