Black-on-black crime continues to rage unabated most days in America’s Murder City. However, some days the good guys fight back. Just that happened in recent days when a 60-year-old CCW holder, trying to use an ATM machine, was robbed by a perp on a bike at dawn Friday morning.
Our hero pulled his own gun and rapidly and promiscuously shot the robber, causing the aspiring armed robber to stop breathing and successfully complete the room temperature challenge. His days of contributing to Mayor Brandon Johnson’s crime problem have ended, permanently.
CBS Chicago has some more details.
CHICAGO (CBS) – A man attempting a robbery was killed during a shootout with a concealed carry license holder in the Auburn Gresham neighborhood Friday morning.
Chicago police said just before 5:30 a.m., a man, 60, was at a nearby ATM in the 1500 block of West 82nd Street when another man on a bike approached, displayed a firearm, and demanded his property.
The victim, a valid FOID card and CCL holder, pulled out a firearm, and the two exchanged gunfire, police said.
Sadly, the CCW holder soaked up two rounds, but will likely survive.
The robber, however, will not reanimate anytime soon.
Our hats off to the good guy here and we wish him a speedy recovery. If anyone knows who he is, urge him to contact us.
