A 19-year-old man who has three felony juvenile cases pending was shot three times by a concealed carry holder after he opened fire on the man’s car in a McDonald’s parking lot Tuesday, prosecutors said. The victim, 49, and his 11-year-old daughter, who was in the back seat, were both unharmed.

 

Giovanni Castanon has carjacking, burglary, and aggravated battery cases pending in juvenile court, according to prosecutors. He is the 27th person accused of killing or shooting -- or attempting to kill or shoot -- someone in Chicago while on bail for a felony this year. The alleged crimes involved at least 58 victims, 12 of whom died.

 

Prosecutors said the concealed carry holder and his daughter were sitting in their car at McDonald's on 106th Street near the Indiana state line when a masked man approached them and began yelling around 5:12 p.m.

 

The masked offender, identified by prosecutors as Castanon, pulled out a gun and fired several shots at the victim’s car, prompting the concealed carry holder to return fire.

 

Castanon fired more shots toward the car as he ran away, prosecutors said. Cops found him in a nearby residential garage with gunshot wounds to his hand, arm, and foot.

...

Prosecutors said investigators never found the gun Castanon used to shoot at the victims.

...

Bail was set at $300,000 with electronic monitoring by Judge Charles Beach, which means Castanon must post a $30,000 deposit to be released on house arrest.

...

 

... and on January 1, 2023, Illinois will be eliminating the bail requirement.

“Sheriff Dart has been adamant that electronic monitoring does not prevent violent offenders from continuing to engage in acts of violence,”

 

"... lawyers claim that the Cook County Sheriff’s Office EM program had 3,500 participants and received about 850 violation alerts every day at the time of Guy’s death, but the department only had 110 staff members assigned to the EM program."
