Euler Posted March 2, 2021 at 04:48 AM Share Posted March 2, 2021 at 04:48 AM CWBChicago A Chicago man fired a gun into the air to break up a large fight outside a Loop hotel over the weekend that left another man stabbed, prosecutors said Monday. ... but nobody was shot, police said. ... Police allegedly found Edwin Solis, 23, nearby wearing a jacket like the one the guard described. They detained him and then reviewed surveillance video that shows him firing a gun into the air to disperse the fight, prosecutors said. ... Solis has an Illinois Firearm Owner's ID card, but he does not have a concealed carry license, prosecutors said. He allegedly admitted to firing the gun during a conversation with police. Prosecutors charged him with reckless discharge of a firearm. His private attorney, Lawrence X. O'Reilly, said Solis has no criminal record. Judge David Navarro set bail at $25,000. Solis will need to post a $2,500 deposit bond to get out of jail. Navarro specifically denied O'Reilly's request to have Solis released on electronic monitoring rather than requiring a cash deposit. No CCL? No problem, although reckless discharge is a felony. I wonder what bail the stabber would have needed if he had been apprehended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandyP Posted March 2, 2021 at 10:45 PM Share Posted March 2, 2021 at 10:45 PM "Prosecutors charged him with reckless discharge of a firearm. " Probably he was charged with that rather than for being a universally recognized dummass? I could be mistaken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Until then, it's a perfectly valid source of revenue.Funny how such a crucial piece of legislation isnt crucial enough to take effect immediately. Guess all the poor and minorities unfairly punished dont matter for two more years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
