One and a half head shots. Good aim
One shot in the head. One shot in the neck. Despite the fact they were armed also.
Good shooting!
The perps chose.....poorly
The garbage man is armed. Think about it.
2 and 0. Not bad, but the good guy will probably be prosecuted for murder in the first degree. The fact the had a CCL shows intent to commit murder while collecting garbage.
At least we’ve determined the dead wasn’t worth garbage . . .
Why would thieves target a garbage truck? My guess is that the thieves didn’t give a crap. Target someone with a $10,000 diamond ring. Target some working guy with maybe $40 in his wallet.
It’s all the same to them. Predators without the slightest bit of impulse control.
Damned good shooting under duress! Put this guy in charge of LEO training.
...Chicago, no cops when you need one and even the garbage men are armed.
Garbage men cops, BRILLIANT!
That’s a shame.
“Attempted armed robbery in Homan Square ends with victim, a CCL holder, shooting suspects”
Of all people, you’d think that the people in Chicago would know enough not to mess with Homan.
This attempted robbery occurred a little over one hundred feet north of a large police facility which houses CPD SWAT, evidence technicians, evidence and recovered property, among other police specialized units. The avenue where it occurred, police vehicles can be seen traveling to and from the facility at all hours of the day. This incident just demonstrates the lack of fear criminals have of the police right now.
Do I have to ask the question Yogi?
Be calm, Boo Boo, the answer is always the same.
How soon until the gun grabbers add this fatality to their running total as “another senseless gun death” and use it as a reason to push for further gun control?
“With your help, we can bring the number of these events to zero.”
The city should, at the very least, reimburse the victim's cost of ammunition.
‘The garbage man is armed. Think about it.’
Sounds to me that he was he was equipped and had the skills required to perform his job of taking out the ‘trash’.
Head shots save ammo.
Should’ve thrown the bodies in the truck and moved on
