| Inmates Take Over Portion Of A Jail In Chicago, Hostage Taken |
| 2016-07-29 |
| [WeaselZippers] ILLINOIS -- At least two inmates at the Cook County Jail in Chicago have taken a fellow inmate now, there's value, right there! hostage inside the facility. From NBC Chicago: "According to the Cook County Sheriff's office, the two detainees covered the floor of Division 10 Not to be confused with Division Mensa. with soapy water well, it was white, kind of. and obscured the fixed cameras within the tier before ripping the cameras down entirely." How, exactly, did they do this unobserved? You think anyone actually watches the camera output? The hostage takers are reportedly armed with some type of shank. I was totally unaware there were different varieties of shanks! Shivs, otoh... I think it's a "number 7" shank... There are multiple other inmates in the pod. Division 10 is the maximum security area of the jail. Why do I sense the oncoming cry from Madigan, et al to raise taxes for a "Super-Duper Maximum Security Wing" of the crowbar motel? Naming rights TBD. Officials said they are working to resolve the incident ’peacefully.’ Hey, O'Shaunessy - send a coupla guys over 'dere and make sure dey bring 'dere "peacekeepers" No injuries have been reported. Yet... The situation is ongoing. Now resolved, and even peacefully it seems. |
