Officer’s gun accidentally discharged while responding to Lil Reese shooting

CHICAGO- A police officer’s gun accidentally discharged Saturday, while responding to the shooting involving rapper Lil Reese.

According to CBS 2’s Steven Graves, police say that the officer’s gun went off and that it was an “accident”. It’s also unclear if the officer hit anyone.

As I wrote yesterday, police were called about a shooting in a garage Saturday.

When police arrived, they found a sport-utility vehicle that had crashed into a pillar on the third floor of the garage, with three bullets on the side of the car.

Lil Reese was among three men who were shot. The youngest male who is 20, was shot in his knee, and a 27-year-old man was shot multiple times and taken to a hospital.

Lil Reese’s eye was grazed by a bullet, and he was placed in stable condition on Saturday.

The rapper, and his management team have been updating fans of the rapper, writing “GOD IS GREAT” on their last post.

There have been no arrests, but there is an ongoing investigation.
