, the 911 dispatcher praised for how he coordinated the response the night officers Ella French and Carlos Yanez were shot in the line of duty. Saturday night he was at the helm again when mobs of young people went to The Loop and Millennium Park and a teen was killed.

Sunday Thornton posted on Facebook saying,"Chicago is in a death spiral and has quickly turned into a city that caters strictly to criminals who target the innocent.
