The exhaustive search continues for the suspects who opened fire on two uniformed Chicago police officers in West Englewood on Wednesday.
One of those officers was struck by gunfire. She remains in the hospital in serious but stable condition, police said on Thursday."I said to the superintendent, spare no expense, get our federal partners involved, we need to make sure the persons responsible for this are brought to justice," said Mayor Lori Lightfoot. "The thing that is most horrifying to me is that uniformed officers in a marked squad were purposefully targeted and attacked.
French was shot and killed in the line of duty last August – about one mile from Wednesday’s attack. In that case, Yanez Jr. and French were also performing a traffic stop."It was kind of a litany of emotions, from anger to just total pride that here is a guy who was fighting for his life eight months ago, nine months ago, and here his first thought was, ‘what can I do for somebody else,’" said Catanzara.
