CHICAGO (WCMH/MEDIA GENERAL) – A nurse from Chicago got a rude awakening Thursday, a few hours after a man blew off his hand with a firecracker.
Cheri Steigert tells WBBM-TV that she was asleep after an overnight shift when she heard an explosion and a scream in her Portage Park neighborhood in Chicago on Thursday afternoon.
A few hours later, Steigert said she let her dog out in the yard. A few minutes later, the dog walked up to her with a hand in its mouth.
“This is like the first Fourth of July that I had off in three years and I have body parts flying in my yard,” Steigert told WBBM.
The victim was identified as 39-year-old Rafat Shejaeya. According to a report from WLS-TV, Shejaeya is a barber. Thanks to Steigert’s dog, Shejaeya may recover some use of his hand, but is unsure if he will be able to return to cutting hair.
Police say Shejaeya had the equivalent of a half-stick of dynamite explode near him. Steigert lives about 250 feet from where the accident happened.

Dogs trophy. Can brag to other dogs, “see here, this is the hand that fed me”
Shake? Shake? good boy.
Well sure, if you keep throwing it for him.
Our dogs would have eaten it on the spot.
It’s a toss up if our cats would have eaten it outside or brought it in to be praised.
You amaze me. How do you guys *know* this stuff? :)

Lol! I guess now the dog can pat himself on the head!
Edward Scissorhands?
“i’ll never do that again”, said rafat offhandedly.
my dog is always telling me he licks his privates because he doesn’t have thumbs..
I’m very interested in Islam. Ever watch Bill Warner or Robert Spencer videos?
The history of Islam explains what they’re doing now.
Hint: World wide domination....
I have a fair amount of experience w/ Islam, having lived in Turkey for 2 years and traveled a lot the M.E.
Atatürk’s Reforms for a Republic have taken a slide back to what appears to be the old Ottoman ways. At one time the Turks were going in the right direction.
Ah, I see! Yes indeed, Erdogan is a rabid mohammedan and wants to revive the Ottoman Empire. I drove through Turkey as a child, after living in Jordan for 2 or so years. Many vivid memories, but from the view of a child.
