Wrigleyville Attackers Receive Probation For Injuring Four, Including Cop
After a recent court sentencing here in Chicago, one might think it’s now okay to wreak havoc in the tourist-filled parts of town, beating up people and cops.
From the Chicago Sun-Times website yesterday afternoon:
Three men charged with a July 2012 beating in Wrigleyville that left four injured — including a police officer — and was filmed as a part of a rap video were sentenced to probation…
Three men — ages 22, 27 and 27 — were hurt when a group of men attacked them in the 3400 block of North Sheffield Avenue about 1 a.m. on July 9, 2012, according to Chicago police.
Witnesses said the attackers got out of a white stretch limo and began battering people standing nearby on the street, police said. The witnesses said people inside the limo were filming the attackers as they punched the victims.
One Chicago police officer suffered a minor injury when one attacker resisted arrest. All three attackers pleaded guilty to charges including mob action and aggravated battery, yet only received probation.
And people still can’t figure out why our city’s streets aren’t as safe as they could be.
As if there weren’t enough hints out there already.
Hey batter, batter, batter, sa-wing batter.
