I only heard about this because the shooter worked for my cousin
over uneaten Pizza on the table - REALLY? Not even Chicago Deep Dish is worth that!!!
Glad my wife talked me into moving back from Chicago in '95
The bar's owners said the argument started over leftover pizza between the victim — a regular — and three first-time customers.
The argument then spilled out onto the front deck where shots were fired. Rosie O'Reilly's owners showed NBC Chicago footage recorded by another bar patron that showed one man pulling out a gun and firing two shots into the air.
Prosecutors said "a brief scuffle ensued on the outside front porch of the bar between Perkins, Freund and two other men, which ultimately resulted in Freund pulling out a 9 mm Glock handgun from his jacket pocket and firing two warning shots into the air."
"It is further alleged that after Freund fired the warning shots, Perkins approached the other man at which time Freund, who was standing on the other side of a wooden railing, fired at him, striking him in the torso and in the face. It is alleged that after the shooting, Freund placed the Glock, which had been fired a total of eleven times, in the center console of his truck where it was ultimately found by law enforcement,'' a release from DuPage County State's Attorney Bob Berlin and DuPage County Sheriff James Mendrick stated.
