A proposal to demolish the former Ford City Mall and redevelop the site as a warehouse and distribution facility advanced Thursday.
Officials on Thursday night said Richard J. Daley College is an ideal location because it's move-in ready and a fraction of the cost of a hotel, but many in the Southwest Side crowd didn't want to hear it.
Two people have been charged after an attempted carjacking near Ford City Mall in which the victim shot and wounded one of the suspects, Chicago police said.
Police said the victim was transported to Christ Hospital in critical condition. He later died.
The victim, who is a FOID and CCL holder, was wounded while exchanging gunfire with the offender, police said.
An unknown offender pulled out a sharp object and stabbed the woman multiple time in the body, police said.
