A Chicago police officer, emergency room doctor, and pharmacy technician were killed on Nov. 19 when a gunman opened fire at Mercy Hospital & Medical Center.

Chicago “lost a doctor, pharmaceutical assistant, and a police officer, all going about their day, all doing what they loved,” Mayor Rahm Emanuel said at a press conference Tuesday, fighting back tears. “This just tears at the soul of our city. It is the face and a consequence of evil.”
