A 33-year-old woman was stabbed by an unknown assailant at one of the Cook County Forest Preserves this past weekend where guns are prohibited.  The good news is she’ll live.  The bad news is she probably won’t be out jogging there again soon.  At least her attacker abides by Illinois’ prohibition on carrying guns on Forest Preserve property!

Suburban Chicago (Tribune) – A woman was stabbed while jogging in a forest perserve in northwest suburban Palatine on Saturday afternoon, authorities said.

The woman, 33, was jogging on a path in the Deer Grove Forest Preserve about 4:15 p.m. when a man ran up to her, stabbed her in the abdomen and then fled, said Don Parker, a spokesman for the Forest Preserve District of Cook County.

Too bad the jogger didn’t have a carry piece.

(That’s sarcasm in the title, for the sarcastically challenged.)
