A concealed carry holder shot back at two gunman Friday, hitting them both in a South Side Englewood shooting that hurt three people. The license holder was seated in a vehicle about 2:15 p.m. when at least two men came up and started shooting, Chicago police said.

The gunfire hit a 22-year-old man standing outside the man’s car in the 6200 block of South Justine, police said. The concealed carry holder stepped out of the vehicle, took out his own weapon and shot two men.

One of those men was critically wounded with gunshot wounds to his groin and ankles, police said. The 20-year-old was rushed to Mt. Sinai Hospital.

The other alleged shooter was shot in the buttocks and grazed in his arms and head, police said. The 25-year-old’s condition was stabilized at Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn. The 22-year-old standing outside the car had been struck in the hip. He was taken to the University of Chicago Medical Center, where his condition was stabilized. The man with the concealed carry license, age 28, was uninjured.

“One of those men was critically wounded with gunshot wounds to his groin and ankles, police said. “

Nice shooting! Hopefully the “groin shot” removed (or at least seriously damaged) the other “weapon” he was “carrying,” rendering it “inoperative,” so now there won’t be any of his “clones” running around in the future. Problem-solving, one shot at a time! I guess in this case, it was better to “aimlow!”

Lots about this isn’t included in the story. Sounds like stuff happening in the hood. Shot where guys do the thinking has to hurt.

IL preemption laws prohibit other sub-jurisdictions from enacting add’l laws regarding firearms, so an IL resident who obtains a CCW license may a Chicagoan as well...

IL has some 243k CCW licenses issued per this website:

Black robed Princes in Chicago don’t go out night, so he was doing well to be carrying a pistol... besides, Judges usually weigh too much to conceal and carry.

And nearly all of us are still waiting 2 or 3 months since ours have expired after renewing on time.

"Shot in the ankles?"

If the person resembled Hillary it would be considered center mass.
