A veteran Chicago police officer was shot twice early Monday during an attempted robbery while he was off duty and about to remove his young child from his car outside his Southwest Side home, authorities said.
The officer, 34, sustained gunshot wounds to the chest and wrist, but his injuries did not appear to be life-threatening, police Superintendent Garry McCarthy said. The officer's wrist was broken, but the bullet that struck his chest inflicted only superficial damage, he said.
...
The officer fired in self-defense and might have struck his attacker, according to the superintendent. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
As I have stood in the crosshairs of those who target Second Amendment freedoms, I've realized that firearms are not the only issue. No, it's much, much bigger than that. I've come to understand that a cultural war is raging across our land, in which, with Orwellian fervor, certain acceptable thoughts and speech are mandated. — Charlton Heston |
