The suspect who was shot by police, Adonis Covington, 21, of the 8100 block of South Hermitage Avenue, was charged with two counts of attempted first-degree murder, one count of armed habitual criminal and receiving/possessing a stolen vehicle, according to Chicago police.

“At the end of the day, we’re all humans, right?” Caruso said. “We all like to be rewarded for things we do well, specifically doing jobs that are hard to do. But it’s a long season. I’ve played 25% of the season. I’ve got to do it for another 75%. So maybe talk about it a little more in depth when that time comes, but for now, if I start thinking about that then, you know, I get away from what brings me so much success.”

Police said a 44-year-old man was arguing with an acquaintance on his porch when the person he was arguing with pulled out a weapon and shot him several times before fleeing the scene. The victim suffered two gunshots to the torso, and one to the head. He was taken to Stroger Hospital where he was pronounced dead.

The Bears consistently have paid players to spearhead the pass rush, acquiring and then extending players such as Phillip Daniels, Adewale Ogunleye, Julius Peppers, Willie Young, Lamarr Houston, Pernell McPhee, Mack and most recently Quinn. Young was the best value addition of the group by former general manager Phil Emery and most of the players on that list provided what the Bears were seeking. But it’s an expensive proposition to buy a pass rush, and time and again it has limited the organization from adding key offensive pieces.

“The question is, OK, if (a player) can’t go, does the guy who practiced it Wednesday take over and you still call it? Or do you just bag it because it’s really just built for that one guy?” Bears offensive coordinator Bill Lazor said. “There’s a little bit of both. You try to build as much as you can that the replacement can do it. But to me, that’s a challenge of when guys are questionable. Everybody wants to know, is he going to play, is he practicing, how much is he practicing? As coaches, we want to know that, too, because we’ve got tonight and then we’ve got to plan the next day.”

Sodium chloride — rock salt — is the cheapest and most common ice-melting chemical. Other chemical cousins, such as calcium chloride, magnesium chloride, and potassium chloride, are also used. Potassium chloride is somewhat less damaging to plants, but “it’s not benign,” Janoski said.

“To clarify, the Hon. James Linn did not intend to ban anyone from the courtroom, but asked that the person in question not be in the first row,” the emailed statement read. “The court is open to the public, subject to COVID-19 precautions that limit the number of people in the courtroom to 57.”

Lombardi landed in DeKalb, Ill., after being recruited by the program out of high school by former coach Rod Carey, who is now leading Temple. Lombardi connected with the program again last winter thanks to offensive coordinator Eric Eidsness, who knows his dad, Tony, a longtime football coach.

John Schubert, 71, and his wife Amy Schubert, 61, of suburban Crest Hill, pleaded guilty to parading, demonstrating or picketing in a Capitol Building, a misdemeanor charge, said Bill Miller, spokesperson for the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Columbia.

Earlier this fall, a judge ordered a delay to the Jan. 1 vaccination requirement set by Lightfoot, but it only applies to unionized Chicago police members. Other legal cases, however, have led to federal and Cook County judges denying motions to alter or pause the vaccination policy. On Thursday, the FOP’s bid to block the vaccination reporting requirement was shot down by a judge, for example.
