One of the spate of shootings
that took place in Chicago, Ill. over the July 4th holiday weekend
involved a veteran with a concealed carry permit who was forced to a
shoot a man who began firing on him and a group of friends.
The incident occurred Friday night, the Chicago Tribune reports.
The veteran and three of his
friends were leaving a party on the city’s south side. When the group
reached their vehicle, a container with liquor was sitting on top of it.
A woman from the group asked another group gathered next door who the
liquor belonged to and removed it.
The move angered 22 year-old
Denzel Mickiel, who approached the veteran and his friends shouting
obscenities. The man then went into his residence and returned with a
gun.
As Mickiel opened fire on the
group, the veteran took cover near the vehicle’s front fender, according
to assistant state attorney Mary Hain, the Chicago Tribune reports.
The veteran fired two shots, hitting Mickiel both times.
