– A man was shot after sneaking into a Chicago Police Department facility in Homan Square late Monday morning, and getting his hands on two guns during a SWAT training exercise.
The Homan Square site is home to the Chicago Police Department's evidence and recovered property section; and serves as the base for several specialized units, including the Bureau of Organized Crime, the SWAT unit, evidence technicians, and the CPD ballistics lab. The man, who is from Waukegan, and has a lengthy criminal arrest record, was taken to Stroger Hospital. Brown said his injuries were not life-threatening.
"Obviously, someone coming from a stairwell outside startled everyone. Who is this person? Is this person associated with the training?" Brown said."We do have live actors sometimes that come in plain clothes." "We're not sure if he was actually trying to find property. He does have a pretty lengthy criminal history of arrests, but we're still researching how many of those arrests have led to convictions," Brown said."It could be that he had a legitimate reason to go retrieve property that we may have seized, but we just don't know that to confirm it at this point."
