A police officer for the University of Illinois at Chicago
accidentally discharged his weapon while responding to a report of
possible gunfire on the campus this afternoon, but no injuries were
reported.
"While responding, the officer drew his gun and accidentally
discharged the weapon into the ground," said UIC spokesman Mark Rosati.
The search sparked by the initial report of gunfire continued late
into the afternoon, but Rosati said no evidence of gunshots has been
found. The report of "gunfire noise" near the Student Services
Building at West Harrison Street and South Racine Avenue came in
around 2:40 p.m
