A Chicago police officer and two federal agents were shot early Wednesday near the Chicago Police Department’s Morgan Park District station on the Far South Side, officials said.
Three law enforcement officers were fired upon while they were in a vehicle on their way to conduct a joint investigation between Chicago police and the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, Police Superintendent David Brown said Wednesday morning in a news conference outside Advocate Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn.
A male Chicago police officer and one male and one female agent from the ATF were shot on a northbound ramp to Interstate 57 from 119th Street, near the border between the Morgan Park and West Pullman when the shooting took place, Brown said.
Authorities were looking for a vehicle used in the shooting, according to state police. Read the story.
