Chicago: Migrant Accused of Attacking Coworker with Running Concrete Saw

A migrant is accused of attacking a coworker with a concrete saw at a construction site in Chicago, Illinois.

The accused was identified as 26-year-old Augustin Gomes Granadillo of Venezuela, CWB Chicago reported on Wednesday.


The incident happened on June 23 at the construction site on South Kedvale Avenue when Gomes allegedly grabbed a shovel and tried to hit the victim with it as the pair argued.


Chicago police said Gomes hit the 30-year-old victim in the stomach with a concrete block, then picked up the Stihl masonry saw, which was running at the time, and swung it at him two times.

I'm sure the media and police misunderstood the perp's actions.  His lawyers will say he was risking his own life trying to get ahold of the saw, which was swinging wildly, and he should be praised for trying so hard to save the alleged victim. :whistle:
