Illinois Self-Defense: Two Wounded In Riverdale Shooting :: 01/14/2016

CHICAGO (CBS) — Two people were shot during a robbery attempt in south suburban Riverdale on Wednesday.

Howard Walker, 64, went outside his home in the 14200 block of South Tracy Avenue around 5 a.m. to warm up his car for his wife, when he was confronted by at least one armed attacker.

Walker also was armed, and pulled out his weapon, exchanging gunfire with the attacker.

Neighbors reported hearing at least six shots. Walker was shot at least once. It’s unclear how many times he shot the attacker.

“I seen a trail of blood from the house all the way around the corner, and the ambulance working on him,” neighbor Marion Hansen said. “I got a call, and they told me be careful, because they just got through shooting.”

Walker was in good condition Wednesday morning at Advocate Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn. The condition of his attacker has not been released.

Hansen said Walker is a good man who kept to himself.
