Chicago Police Fire On Cougar
Filed Under Chicago Police, urban peril
Chicago police opened fire on a cougar on the city’s North side.
Fox News Chicago showed video of Chicago police shooting at the cougar earlier this evening.
Reports the Chicago Tribune:
Police cornered the cougar in the back yard of Ben Greene, 39, who lives on the 3400 block of North Hoyne. Greene said he heard a volley of gunfire shortly before 6 p.m. as he was bathing his 10-month-old son. His wife, Kate, ran upstairs screaming with their 3-year-old son, and they all took cover in a back room.
“At first I’m thinking there’s a gun battle in the street,” said Greene, who owns a trucking company.
As the shots stopped Greene heard the police yelling, “We got him! We got him!” Greene ventured downstairs and moved on his knees to the front door, where he saw police on his lawn. The officers had shot holes in an air conditioning unit on the side of Greene’s house while aiming for the cougar, which died near Greene’s garage.
