Charges are pending against three men Friday after gunshots were fired toward an off-duty Chicago Police officer in the West Town neighborhood Thursday night.
The men—ages 18, 20 and 27—were in a dark-colored SUV that pulled alongside the off-duty officer’s vehicle about 11 p.m. in the 2400 block of West Division, police said. The men flashed gang signs at the officer, and the officer pulled away.
The SUV followed and its occupants fired at the officer’s vehicle, but no one was struck, police said. The men were in police custody but no charges had been filed as of Friday afternoon.
