What happens when a pervert tries to crawl through the bedroom window of a young woman in a Chicago neighborhood to do Lord knows what? Well, if mom’s got a gun and the knowledge, skills and proper attitude to use it to defend her daughter, Mr. Pervert won’t see any happy endings. Just such a scenario played out Saturday night in Chicago’s South Shore neighborhood.
An unnamed man’s plans for a fun Saturday night came to a screeching halt as mama bear brought out Big Bertha and blasted the (fatherless man). While her shot didn’t offer taxpayer relief, it accomplished what the mom wanted: for the intruder to retreat.
He retreated alright, leaving a handy blood trail for police to follow. And surprise! They caught him and took him to the hospital before he ran out of red stuff.
Notably, the woman praised Chicago Police for their help and support.
At least the prosecutor on call declined to tell the cops to arrest and take the woman to jail, unlike the man attacked by a mob earlier this summer who shot three and was then arrested. Fortunately he was released prior to arraignment.
Mom now wants to move though, because she doesn’t feel safe. Especially since the police seized her gun for evidence. Who can blame her?
CHICAGO – A woman said she jumped into action Saturday night to protect her children as a man allegedly tried to break into their home in the city’s South Shore neighborhood.
Investigators quickly learned the man had allegedly tried to break into a nearby home and was shot by a woman who is a Concealed Carry License (CCL) holder.
According to the Chicago Police Department, officers responded to a report of a person shot around 10:45 p.m. in the 2300 block of East 69th Street. They found a man, initially believed to be the victim of a shooting, with a gunshot wound to his leg.
“I’m just super shaken up. I’m a single mom. I live here with my children, so that’s the last thing I expect, for someone to try and come in on my daughter,” the woman, who did not want to be identified, told WGN News. “It’s just like a nightmare that came true.”
The woman told WGN News she had come home from celebrating her birthday with her family. Not long after, everything took a turn for the worst as her daughter was in the bathroom.
“While she was showering, a guy like put his hand through the window and she ran out, ‘Mom, somebody’s coming through my room, coming through my window,’” said the woman. “I just went into action and when I actually saw the guy, he was still hanging on her window and he just looked at me and I said, ‘I’ve got a gun, I’m going to shoot.’ I just fired a shot. I didn’t even know he was hit ’til the police came.”
The man, who has not yet been identified publicly by Chicago police, was taken to the University of Chicago Hospital in fair condition.
Fortunately mom had the means with which to thwart the pervy perp’s attempted home invasion. The little girl was just coming out of the shower. It seems a little unlikely that Mr. Perp wanted to deliver some Girl Scout Cookies.
