CHICAGO — A parolee and another man attacked a Chicago cop who was trying to catch someone who had a firearm outside a funeral gathering on the West Side, according to CPD reports.
A crowd was gathered in the 4600 block of West Madison for a midday memorial service at a church when the 37-year-old cop saw someone with a gun, one CPD report said. He chased the gunman, but men from the crowd swarmed the cop, causing him to fall, according to the report.
