Suspect critically injured after shootout with police in West Rogers Park: CPD

[Fox32Chicago] A 39-year-old man was shot in the shoulder by an armed suspect Saturday morning in Chicago's West Rogers Park neighborhood.
West Rogers Park is on Chicago’s North Side, if that means anything to you, dear Reader.
A suspect is in critical condition after an exchange of gunfire with Chicago police in the West Rogers Park neighborhood, authorities said.

The incident took place around 9:35 a.m. Saturday on the 2600 block of North Washtenaw Avenue, a neighborhood home to many Orthodox Jewish families.

A 39-year-old man was walking in the area when an armed suspect approached him from behind and fired multiple shots, striking him in the shoulder, CPD said.

Neighbors said the man was going to his synagogue prior to the shooting.

Officers responded to the scene and at around 9:55 a.m., the suspect re-emerged from an alley and started firing shots at police and first responders, CPD said. An ambulance was also struck by gunfire.

The suspect continued shooting at officers from various locations over about two and a half minutes, according to police. After reaching the 6800 block of North Washtenaw Avenue, officers shot the suspect multiple times.

Police rendered aid to the suspect and recovered the gun that was used in the shooting.

The suspect was taken to St. Francis Hospital and is in critical condition. Authorities said the 39-year-old victim was treated at a hospital and has since been released.

Update at 7:15 p.m. ET, summarized from information in comments for future searchability: The miscreant is Sidi Mohamed Abdallahi, 22, an illegal immigrant who crossed our Mexican border a year and a half ago, ie. April/May 2023.
