Mayor Lori Lightfoot's security detail may have prevented a terrible tragedy after spotting a man with guns near Millennium Park, police say.
CHICAGO -- A member of Mayor Lori Lightfoot's security detail may have prevented a mass shooting after spotting a man with a gun near Millennium Park this week, according to Chicago police.
Sources said a member of her security detail then noticed something alarming about one of two men standing in line at the Shake Shack."...the second has a leather coach-style bag with the outline of a gun," he said to dispatch. Both weapons had an"extended magazine" and"laser sight attachment." One had a"live round in the chamber" and a"switch to shoot full auto."
Farrell praised the mayor's bodyguard and given the fact the incident happened right across from Millennium Park, he believes it may have averted something horrible from happening.
