The National Police Association is announcing a $5,000 reward for information leading to the identification, arrest, and conviction of the individuals responsible for shooting a retired Chicago PD officer.

The shooting happened in Chicago around 7:30 a.m. Thursday 9/1/22 at 71st Street and Wentworth Avenue, just outside a Currency Exchange where the 60-year-old retired officer worked as a security guard.

A gray Dodge Durango pulled up and two men exited the vehicle as a 58-year-old woman was opening the Currency Exchange. One of the men approaches the woman, the other would-be robber approached the retired officer’s car.

The retired officer and men then exchanged gunfire and he was shot six times.
