CPD Accidential Discharge Inside Station Bursts Water Pipe
Can't resist this one.....we all get really tired listening to Supt. McCarthy whining about how well trained the Chicago Police officers are and that they are concerned about concealed carry permit holders. Perhaps CPD should start with refresher training for their own officers.
A sergeant accidentally fired his gun in the Central District police station in the South Loop, hitting a water pipe that leaked for two hours while police waited on city engineers.
The gun went off around 9:40 p.m. Monday in the Chicago Alternative Policing (CAPS) office at the district station at 18th and State streets, according to police. No one was injured, but officers noticed a trickle of water from the first-floor ceiling that turned into a gushing stream. The downpour ruined computers and desks, but a damage estimate wasn't immediately available.
