A Chicago police officer has yet to face any disciplinary action from his police force after pleading guilty to vandalizing an elderly man’s car, according to the victim’s family, who believe the car was targeted because it belongs to a Jew.
Mohammed Khan, 35, [http://publicsearch1.chicagopolice.org/Arrests/Details/18284442] was arrested last March after he broke the side mirrors off of the vehicle of 77-year-old Rabbi Abraham Wineberg who was visiting his granddaughter and great grandchildren in Chicago’s West Rogers Park Neighborhood.
Khan was seen in surveillance footage from around 2:30 a.m. on March 3, 2024, where he first issued a parking ticket to Wineberg, who was illegally parked in Khan’s private handicapped spot, issued to accommodate Khan’s handicapped family member. Khan was off duty at the time and driving his personal vehicle.
Footage shows Khan peering through the rear window at Jewish and Hebrew prayer books and paraphernalia. He then returned on foot, and was seen in the footage kicking off one of the vehicle’s mirrors, which was left dangling by its wire. A few minutes later, he is seen from another angle returning again to break the other mirror, which Wineberg’s family says was completely cut off with a tool. The vehicle was then later towed….
Khan was sentenced to 40 hours of community service, 10 hours of anger management, and $800 to pay for damages, according to Wolf. Wolf receives an email every few months from the Chicago Police Department’s Bureau of Internal Affairs telling him that their investigation into his complaint about Khan is still ongoing, despite Khan pleading guilty.
The family’s patience has run out and they filed a complaint to the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois Eastern Division earlier this month to seek action. The complaint seeks damages under the Fourth Amendment, Fourteenth Amendment, and common law of the State of Illinois for malicious acts that damage property.
The suit alleges that the incident caused Wineberg “a great amount of stress and emotional distress” which was compounded “by the realization that Khan had evidently acted in such a fashion after noticing that the owner of the car was likely Jewish.”
“Why is Khan still in the force? Why are they still investigating? He already pleaded guilty. If this was a Jewish cop and a Muslim victim would this be the same story?”…
While consequences should be meted out against mohammed, the Jewish Great Grandfather also ought not have parked in the handicapped spot.
Everyone could behave better. The Jewish gentleman deserves a ticket, the muslim should lose his job.
Think of refs blowing a call during a football game. Are they really trying to get it right?
Make vigilantism great again.

Introduce Mo to a tree with a rope hanging down.
“Khan” is an unusual surname for a Muslim. OTOH, it’s a very common surname for a Skin.
I see nothing in the story that indicates he’s a Muslim. Are people jumping to conclusions?
Indeed!
Khan is a very common Pakistani surname.
Maybe the 77 year old man had a handicapped permit.
“… Khan’s private handicapped spot, issued to accommodate Khan’s handicapped family member. ”
A private handicapped slot? Never seen one of those. Maybe a reserved parking spot. If reserved, he could have had the car towed.
Pakistani Muslim maybe….
Payback plus and call it even.
Khan is a Pakistani Muslim name. [Not Just Indian]. Previous Prez of that country and more
There is a section in Chicago of [Indian and] many Pakistanis immigrants. The same goes in Coney Island in Brooklyn (after others such as Italians amd Jews) as well as in AOC district in Queens (and among her staff) <=p>
He should have been fired already.
I was confusing it with “Singh”.
Singh is more typically Sikh.
