CIVIL RIGHTS MILESTONE: First Defensive Gun Use By A Chicago Carry Permit Holder. “The man was walking from his garage to the front of his home when two males in hoodies appeared in a gangway between his home and the neighbor’s home, Sullivan said. One of the two men pulled a handgun from his waistband and pointed at the man who took out his own gun and managed to fire several times at the males, Sullivan said. The males fled the area without being struck and the shooting did not result in any property damage, police said.”
