Berwyn Police Blotter
Shots fired, but nobody’s talking
April 29, 2007, 2:30 AM
After a call of “shots fired”, an officer came to the 1500 block of Oak Park Avenue and found broken beer bottles scattered all over 15th west of Euclid. Witnesses said that as they returned from a bar to pick up kids from a birthday party on this block, a dark grey vehicle drove up “out of nowhere” and someone fired at least 10 to 12 shots, fleeing east on 15th and then north on Euclid. Officers found three spent shell casings and three projectiles in the alley of the 1500 block of Euclid/Oak Parl Avenue, as well as bullet holes in a car. Police felt the witnesses were not being entirely candid in their recollections. One witness, a 22-year-old Cicero man, said he did not want to say more in front of his dad. But later, when detectives spoke with him alone, his story did not change. He was told to call police if he decides to cooperate in an investigation of the incident.
