RIVERSIDE - Riverside Police report someone fired shots at Cook County Commissioner Tony Peraica's house Wednesday morning.

Seven bullets actually struck his neighbor's house, but police now believe they were intended for Peraica's home.

Authorities have contacted the Cook County Sheriff and have ordered a special watch on the commissioner's house as a precaution.

Anyone with information is asked to call Riverside Police.

A Republican in Cook County? This is like a penguin in Ecuador.

Oh sorry they should have used magic bullet. They don't hit anything if you miss you intended target

What did he do, vote against that creep Stroger who heads up the county board? Maybe he insulted Bill and Hillary. Many possibilities. As for the shooter, couldn’t hit the broad side of a barn.

There are a lot of Republicans in SUBURBAN Cook County. Unfortunately, we have gone from red to purple over the past 15 years, especially in the more affluent suburbs.

Tony is a good guy. He’s been very active trying to fight the Democrat/Mafia corruption in Crook County. Apparently the Dem’s and the mob have had a little too much of his attitude. This is just their way of voicing their displeasure. That’s the Chicago way.

The second ammendment evidently does not have jurisdiction in Crook County. The Democrats’ buddies in the mob and the gangs don’t want resistance from armed would-be victims, and the Dems are all too willing to comply with their desires (for a fee of course).

Illinois has the most restrictive gun laws in the nation.

True. And one of the highest crime rates as well. Hmm.

That said, getting a hand gun and keeping it in your home is perfectly legal in most local jurisdictions. Crook County, however, is not one of them.
