Police released photos Friday afternoon of the people wanted in the Thursday robbery and battery of an off-duty Chicago police sergeant in the Loop.
The sergeant was seriously injured Thursday after he was beaten and robbed of his gun in a downtown parking garage, police said. The incident happened at 3 p.m. in the 100 block of West Madison Street.
Further proof that simply HAVING a gun doesn't make you safe; situational awareness is a necessary component of ANY effective defensive strategy.
Sadly, it sounds like this officer was taken unawares, and is now hospitalized in serious condition, and his service weapon is in the hands of his attackers.
It might also serve as a reminder that there's a reason folks call this city 'Chiraq'.....
