Concealed Carry Holder Stops Armed Robbery in Chicago, Shoots One Crook in the Knee, Another in the Buttock

A concealed carry holder stopped an armed robbery crew from stealing his car in downtown Chicago early this morning.

The armed permit holder shot two men during an exchange of gunfire in the heart of Chicago’s downtown.

He was able to stop the car theft while taking out two of the suspects.

According to Chicago police, the victim was leaving the Cambria Hotel in the theater district when someone fired shots at him from a red SUV.

The concealed carry holder returned fire at the red SUV, sending the thugs fleeing from the scene.

However, another member of the same criminal gang was inside the victim’s parked car.

He got out and ran from the scene of the crime.

But cops say the crook left a tool and a phone in his haste to get away.

Shortly after the concealed carry holder stopped the crime in progress, a red SUV showed up at Northwestern Memorial Hospital.

A 26-year-old man, who is now in police custody, walked into the emergency room for treatment of a gunshot wound to his knee.

Police say the SUV had bullet holes in it and was abandoned in the hospital emergency bay.

Two ammunition magazines were found lying on the ground close to the red SUV.

Around the same time, a 24-year-old man walked into Lurie Children’s Hospital with a gunshot wound to his right buttock.
