Chicago Police Department Officer Danny Golden was paralyzed during a Beverly shooting on the Far South Side. Three people of interest are in custody.
"I believe he saved lives that night getting people away as this individual was spraying the crowd with gun fire... machine gun," O'Shea said.Friends, family and the community are now rallying around Golden.
Golden's fiancee said it was a miracle he survived, especially after doctors told her the bullet lodged between his lungs and heart missed his valve one 1 millimeter. She said he is in good spirits as he recovers.
