Chlada was thankful the concealed carry permit holder was there to help out.
The good guy with a gun exited his vehicle and shot at the suspect three times, “striking the suspect,” according to the local CBS affiliate.
The man says he then worked to help the injured officer, Luis Duarte, 32.
“Well, like I’m thinking you know, save that officer’s life you know, and then I tried to help that officer,” the anonymous man told CBS. “I take a towel in my car and wrapped it around his arm.”
The injured officer underwent surgery for five hours, “But everything went well and he’s resting comfortably right now,” Cicero Police Superintendent Jerry Chlada communicated.
“We were lucky enough to have a good citizen on the street who’s a concealed carry holder,” Chlada said in a statement. “And he also engaged in gunfire with the offender who was struck one time.”
