'Kill The Cops' - Unrest After Chicago Cop Shot 'Unarmed Black Man' With Gun

A Chicago PD officer-involved shooting has sparked unrest and threats against police.

Chicago, IL - Protesters gathered and threatened to kill the police after a Chicago PD officer shot a man Saturday night.

The incident happened in the area of 71st St and Chappel Ave at around 5:30 p.m.

Community "witnesses" are claiming that an unarmed black barber was walking home from work when a Chicago PD officer shot him in the back as he was running away.

Other "witnesses" said that the man had a gun, but it was okay for the man to have a gun, because he had a concealed carry permit.

It's not clear if any of these witnesses actually witnessed the shooting.

UPDATE: Chciago PD confirms that the man had a gun.

No other information has been officially released about the circumstances of the shooting.

The condition of the suspect has not been officially released, but WGN9 reports that is he is dead.

No officers were injured in the shooting.

Neither the involved officers or suspect have been identified at this time.

Almost immediately after the shooting, a crowd gathered and started threatening to shoot the police officers.

At least one person started jumping on police cars.

The unrest has been captured on video by the large number of community activists who arrived following the shooting.

We need to build walls around some of these armpit cities and let them take care of it themselves.

Chicago, Baltimore, St. Louis, all have the same problem. Jungle warfare, in the concrete jungle.

Chicago should do the same as Baltimore. Give them the space to riot, loot and burn. Let them get it off of their chests. They'll feel better and no officer will be injured. Of course there maybe some residual damage, like burnt down businesses, but I'm sure the city has money stashed away in it's coffers to rebuild the city. "Burn that fucker down!" Oh, wait! That was the Ferguson chant for urban renewal. Sorry, it's difficult to tell one shithole from another.

@ForestJohn LOL, if it's not Soros it's Clinton, if it's not her it's the Boogeyman.

It must be stressful for you to be afraid of everything all the time.

And a White guy on the bull horn inciting the lemmings. Probably on the payroll of George Soros...

Go stage another walk. Better yet, just let them eliminate each other.

4 killed, 20 wounded. All wonderful people shooting each other. Bet no one knows anything.

The "community" has to do what the "community" has to do!" Why does it always have to be anti-police violence?
