Title: Uber driver with CCW permit stops mass shooting in Chicago

Well done. 

I wonder if events like this will begin to change some minds in Chicago.

A group of people had been walking in front of the driver around 11:50 p.m. Friday in the 2900 block of North Milwaukee Avenue when Everardo Custodio, 22, began firing into the crowd, Quinn said.

The driver pulled out a handgun and fired six shots at Custodio, hitting him several times, according to court records.  Responding officers found Custodio lying on the ground, bleeding, Quinn said.  No other injuries were reported.

Presumed at least 50% hit rate on target and 0 collateral hits? Well done, indeed.

Agreed. A generally favorable outcome, although now the (original) shooter will become a ward of the state for a prolonged period.

There will be many heads asploding in Chicago and Illinois State Governments.

The only thing more hated in Illinois then Uber is CCW.  Combining both into such a positive outcome is very bad for the narrative....

A positive outcome?! How dare you! A gentle giant has been gunned down, and just as he was beginning to turn his life around! Check your privilege, etc!

You left out some stuff.

stay safe.

Has the Uber driver been charged with a crime yet?
Has the local authorities published his name and address in the name of transparency?

Transparency Uber Alles. (Except us, of course.)

No charges will be filed against the CCWer. 

The guy who fired into the crowd has been charged with aggravated assault and unlawful use of a weapon.  That seems way too light to me.

If you charged him with attempted murder you'd be acknowledging that the CCWer probably saved lives.
