CHICAGO (Sun-Times Media Wire) ―
Detectives are on the scene Monday afternoon after a city Department of Revenue employee was shot while booting a car on the South Side.
The shooting occurred on the 8400 block of South Dante Avenue on Monday morning, according to a Calumet Area police lieutenant, who said they are on the scene as of 12:15 p.m.
A "booter" was shot while booting a vehicle, Department of Revenue Director Bea Reyna-Hickey said, directing further inquires to police.
According to preliminary reports, the city employee was putting the boot on a car when he was shot, the lieutenant said. Fire Media Affairs Assistant Director Eve Rodriguez said he was taken to Northwestern Memorial Hospital in serious condition.
Unconfirmed dispatch reports said the booter was shot in the lower back about 11:40 a.m., possibly by the owner of the car being booted.
Police were unable to confirm that information as of early Monday afternoon.
