On Aug. 18, 2011, the gun was used in another shooting in the 7800 block of South Cregier Avenue. And then it was fired in another shooting about three years later, on July 24, 2014, in the 8000 block of South Manistee Avenue. The weapon was fired again the day before Halloween in 2016 in the 12300 block of South Emerald Avenue.
“In the first couple of innings I was not really commanding the plate,” Kopech said. “Not having the comfort to go straight to a slider or a breaking ball, to make up for spraying a fastball, really puts you two steps behind. If you’re not throwing a fastball for a strike or your secondary for a strike, you’re just fighting yourself.
“A lot of credit to the fans for just being willing to say, OK, digital tickets, digital venues, we’re going to come in with a different process, I’m going to be assigned to a gate and will be given a time, we have to wear these masks — and God bless them, they did,” Kenney said. “They’ve really been patient and they’ve done incredibly well.”
“He’s always got that competitive drive ingrained in him — that’s where he’s at all the time,” Nagy said. “He also has that other side to him as well. The more that we have these meetings, the more that we work with him, the more that we realize and get to see his commitment to being focused on the details of this offense and see how fast he can grow, it gives us a chance to be able to work off of that. But he’s got a really great, professional personality, which I love. He’s all about business right now.”
Very little about the this year’s prom for seniors from the Chicago Noble schools could be considered typical. But it will certainly be memorable.Prom for about 3,000 seniors at the network of 17 public charter schools is taking place Friday and Saturday at Soldier Field, with each school getting 45 minutes to join their classmates at the iconic stadium, strut their stuff and take photos against the iconic skyline.But they can’t gather too closely, since social distancing is in effect, meaning no dancing. And no heels were to be allowed on the field.“The premier location and special effects will make a night to remember!” the school network said on its website, adding that though there was to be no dress code, “we will be rolling out the red carpet and hope our guests will dress for the occasion.”Juan Carlos Rodriguez II, a senior at Mansueto High School, one of the Noble schools, earlier told the Tribune he planned to wear a tuxedo for “a once-in-a-lifetime experience.”
It’s too early to religate the move for Vučević at the trade deadline. He is under contract for two more seasons and, as Donovan continued to point out, it was a trade made with this season and beyond in mind. This roster was ill-fitting from the moment the team failed to trade Markkanen in exchange for a point guard, but it’s surprising how little the pieces meshed.
“He was told that it was his fault, he was told that if he ever brought it up again life was over as he knew it, so he suppressed it,” she said. “The triggering event for him was when he learned that this guy had done it to somebody else, he felt, ‘Oh, my God, if somebody would’ve done something about this at the time, it never would’ve happened.
As county commissioner, Suffredin said he will spend the remainder of his final term focusing on the post-2020 U.S. census redistricting process currently taking place, long-awaited ethics ordinance reforms, public health and improving the courts system. In his forest preserves role, he will push for a 2022 referendum to slightly increase real estate taxes for the district, which is limited in funds because it does not have a sales tax levy.
“After a minute he did get up, and he said he was fine, he could keep playing. But that’s the type of player he is. He’ll do anything for this team, and we’re just glad that the prognosis is totally cool. So it was a huge relief, going in, seeing he’s good, in high spirits — for me and the rest of the team. He’ll probably be back playing (Saturday), honestly. We’ll see.”
“These critical revisions to CPD’s search warrant policies and procedures come at a pivotal moment in our journey as we work to bring about true police reform,” said Mayor Lori Lightfoot in the press statement. “Furthermore, they are just one of many reforms that CPD has and will continue to make in order to ensure that accountability, transparency, and human dignity are the guiding principles of policing here in Chicago.”
