"A Near-Northside man was sentenced today to six years in prison and two years community corrections for chasing down and killing an intruder who had robbed him of $27."
"Jurors on Sept. 24 convicted Michael Clements, 62, of aggravated battery and carrying a firearm without a license."
"The victim, Leon Williams Jr., 30, had just robbed Clements and was walking away when he was gunned down, prosecutors say." ...
"On Dec. 18, 2001, Williams broke into Clements' home in the 2800 block of North Boulevard Place, attacked him and stole $27 in cash, police said."
"Williams ran from the home; Clements chased him between houses and fired at least four shots from a .38-caliber handgun. One round landed in a major artery in Williams' left leg. Williams was hospitalized but never regained consciousness. He died four days later." |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
To trust arms in the hands of the people at large has, in Europe, been believed...to be an experiment fraught only with danger. Here by a long trial it has been proved to be perfectly harmless...If the government be equitable; if it be reasonable in its exactions; if proper attention be paid to the education of children in knowledge and religion, few men will be disposed to use arms, unless for their amusement, and for the defence of themselves and their country. — Timothy Dwight, Travels in New England and New York [London 1823] |
