Couple Holds Burglar and 7-Time Felon at Gunpoint in Their 7th-Floor Condo
by Luke McCoy
You might think a home break-in would rarely happen when you live on the seventh floor of a condominium. But as this couple found it, it defiantly can happen.A woman woke up around 3:10 AM to get ready for work in her downtown Chicago condo this past Monday. She heard some noises but thought it was coming from another condo unit. But as she was about to walk out of her bathroom, she came face to face with a home invader.
The suspect, on parole and a seven-time convicted felon, climbed up the construction scaffolding to gain access to their condo. He confronted the woman and punched her in the face. She pushed him back and then fell to the ground. While fighting with the suspect, she yelled for her boyfriend, who was still sleeping.
The boyfriend woke up and ran to help his girlfriend. He pushed the suspect off of her and told her to get his gun. The woman returned with the gun, and the couple held the suspect at gunpoint until the police arrived.

Goooood Morning Chiraq!
Police: man stabs himself during attempted robbery
Joseph Villanova, Journal Inquirer, Manchester, Conn.
Police say a man attempting to rob a home Tuesday night stabbed himself during a chase.The man, Michael Cunningham, 48, of East Hartford was in serious condition in Hartford Hospital early this morning following the incident.
Police say a Delmont Street resident called police around 9:30 p.m. after seeing a man wearing dark clothing and black gloves looking inside the residence from the front door and attempting to open a side door.
About 30 minutes later, an officer located a man who matched the description, later identified as Cunningham, in a parking lot on North Main Street.
Police say Cunningham fell to the ground as he attempted to flee, then pulled out a knife and stabbed himself in the abdomen multiple times.
Police say Cunningham then approached the officer while holding the knife. The officer took cover and demanded Cunningham drop the weapon.
Cunningham then ran toward another parking lot on North Main Street.

Wait!?…….what!!? Stabbed himself?
A preemptive suicide?
Best use of a knife at a gun fight I’ve heard of yet.
Should have “convinced” the ShitCongo repeat offender to leave the same way he arrived, via the scaffold……without holding on to the scaffold.
“Gee, officer, he escaped but lost his grip and fell. Sorry that he died.”
Would have been a unique example of the TSS, without a shot having been fired. Reimburse for the round anyway.
Something like this?
Yeah. Something like that (at the last two seconds)
Never realized the similarities between Jack Spade and Hunter Biden. They were both members of the US military, and they both dated their dead brother’s widow. Maybe the 10% to the big guy was for Me. Bug from this film.
Be interesting to have an ugly/beauty contest between this Kimber k6s and a Ruger sp101.
Kimber makes a drop dead gorgeous wheel gun. They’re also quite proud of them, and set the price-point accordingly.
“…and set the price point accordingly.” The sweetness of low price is gone long before the bitterness of poor quality (and fugliness) sets in. That thar K6 would make a nice Baby Brother (or Sister) to a Kimber 1911 Model Custom LW.
“Leave the way you came, dirtbag! You might want to watch that FIRST (ht 2 (redacted)…or whomever) step.” BZ Citizen!
Ol’ Michael wasn’t very cunning, carving on the sow belly instead of a ham.
Who will be victorious in the War for FIRST on today’s TAH Friday WOT? Gun Bunny has escort duty and may and/or may night be in the fight. Plan accordingly.
I’ve fired J frames in .357. Impressive, but follow-up shots are problematic at best.
For the cost of the Kimber one could purchase two J frame S&W snubbies in .38Spl. I don’t think build quality would be an issue here.
Yep, you’re correct there, Big Dog. And there’s nothing like having a set of “twins” right? *grin*
Heh. Mom and the kids.
Or go compact K. Model 65 or 66 in the old days — SS .357,round butt, 3″ barrel. Packin’ heaven.
Chiraq sigh
If that had been in Texas, the 7-time would never get an 8th chance. He’d a been DRT.
This guy was did not grasp the concept of giving someone the finger.

Here I thought this post was weird enough. Apparently not.
*grin*
Well it turns out that the perp was fingered by his own finger which is easy to finger out.
On the plus side, he now can save 10% on manicures.
