16 YEAR OLD GIRL ATTACKED WITH A BASEBALL BAT AND STABBED
Teen girl gravely injured in Far South Side attack (UPDATED STORY)
A 16-year-old Far South Side girl authorities said was attacked by baseball bat and knife-wielding females as she sat in her sister's parked car Saturday afternoon is expected to survive a serious stab wound to her back.
Andrea Thomas, 16, was saved by surgeons at Advocate Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn after being stabbed in the back on the 10200 block of South Carpenter Street about 2:30 p.m., a Chicago police source said.
Family members said Thomas was with her older sister, Teresa, two blocks from home in a Chevrolet Malibu, when she was attacked in a dispute stemming from a prior romantic relationship of her sister's.
"It didn't have anything to do with her," said Thomas' uncle, Samuel Philson. "She never had trouble with anybody and we don't know why they'd stab her."
Three females, one of them a woman in her 20s, smashed the parked car with baseball bats, the police source said. When Thomas, who attends Carver Military Academy, got out of the car to confront them, she was beaten and stabbed in the back, the source said. One of the females was in police custody, the source added.
Detectives searched for evidence around the battered Malibu, which had a shattered windshield and rear window.
Philson said the stab wound cut one of Thomas's arteries.
Ricky Thomas, 17, said his sister is a good student who loves basketball and dances in a crew called "Paranoia."
"They say she's gonna make it," he said, "I was real scared she wouldn't." http://www.chicagobreakingnews.com/

MAN CAUSES EX-GIRLFRIEND TO LOSE SIGHT IN RIGHT EYE (this is very gruesome)
CINCINNATI -- Police arrested a man accused of causing a woman to lose her eye during a fight early Thursday at a downtown restaurant.
Mark Teremi More
Officers said Mark Teremi threw a cocktail glass at his ex-girlfriend during an altercation around 1:50 a.m. at Bootsy's, and the glass shattered, causing serious facial injuries and seriously injuring one of her eyeballs.
A witness said the woman, identified as Erin Callen, initially believed she had a bloody nose and went into a restroom, where she discovered the injury to her right eye.
The glass also injured her right eyelid and the bridge of her nose.
A police officer told News 5 he had never seen anything like what happened despite many years on the force.
Callen's father told News 5 that his daughter had permanently lost sight in the injured eye, and she would undergo emergency surgery to remove the injured eyeball in hopes of saving it and preventing damage to the sight in her other eye.

MAN CHASES HIS WIFE AND TWO YOUNG SONS
A man chased his wife and two young sons down a Paterson, N.J., street Saturday, shooting them and killing one of the boys before he was fatally shot by an off-duty cop, police and witnesses said.
The gunfire erupted about 9a.m. when Edelmiro Gonzalez, 54, approached his wife, Johanna Gonzalez, 31 - whom he had been separated from for three years - at her mother's home, where she had just dropped off their kids, said Paterson Police Detective Ron Humphrey, according to The Record of Bergen County.
The father shot their 7-year-old son, Adrian, and chased his other son, Edryn, 11, down the driveway and shot him in the neck, Humphrey said.
After shooting the boys, Gonzalez turned to his wife and chased her down Madison St., where he shot her once in the shoulder, said Humphrey.
An off-duty officer, Lt. Washington Griffin, was picking up breakfast with his own young son at a nearby McDonald's drive-thru when he heard "multiple shots" and confronted Gonzalez, police and witnesses said.
Griffin identified himself as an officer and told Gonzalez to put down the gun, cops and witnesses said.
"He told him to stop," Will Hayes told The Record. "The guy didn't, and that's when he shot him."
Griffin fired twice, hitting Gonzalez in the head and in his right leg, Humphrey said.
Cops found two pistols on Gonzalez, a .45 and a smaller caliber gun, Humphrey said.
Gonzalez was taken to the hospital and later pronounced dead, police said.
His wife and his older son, Edryn, were hospitalized in critical condition. Adrian was pronounced dead at the scene, police said.
Some neighbors who witnessed the grisly shooting rushed to help.
Michael Espinosa and his wife, Loretta, heard the shots and saw one boy facedown on the pavement and the other boy with blood gushing from his neck, the couple said.
"When we saw the two children, we weren't ready for that," Michael Espinosa told The Record.
The couple ran toward the wounded children with paper towels, putting pressure on the older brother's neck wound, Espinosa said.
"Not the kids," Espinosa said. "I'll never get over the kids.
