82 421 | A police officer and two employees were killed in Chicago hospital shooting that left gunman dead, November 19, 2018


A police officer, a doctor and a pharmaceutical assistant are dead after a Monday afternoon shooting at Chicago's Mercy hospital, Mayor Rahm Emanuel said.

The gunman, who was in a relationship with the one of the victims, also died, Chicago Police Superintendent Eddie T. Johnson said. It's not clear if he died from police gunfire or a self-inflicted gunshot wound, Johnson added.

421 is the 82nd prime number
 
Around 3:30 p.m., the gunman approached one of the female victims -- a hospital employee -- in the parking lot, Johnson said. As they started arguing, a friend of the woman attempted to intervene.



This happened at Mercy Hospital and Medical Center which is located in Chicago, Illinois.


Chicago Police identified the deceased officer as Samuel Jimenez, a father of three. He joined the force in February 2017 and had recently completed probationary training and become a full-fledged officer, Johnson said.
