MAN DIES AFTER SECURITY GUARD AT LIQUOR STORE ON 75TH ST BEAT HIM!!

Herbert Lemon, 33, died Thursday from injuries he got at the “Wine and Spirits” liquor store at 308 E. 75th St., according to Chicago Police the Cook County Medical Examiner’ Office.

About 1:20 p.m. Tuesday, a security guard recognized Lemon as a someone who shoplifted from the store a day before, authorities said. Security noticed that Lemon’s acquaintance was carrying a gun, so he called police and tried to detain them. A fight happened between Lemon and the security guard. 

When officers showed up, the security guard couldn’t provide evidence that Lemon had stolen from the store, so he was let go, according to police. Lemon left and declined medical attention for his injury.

Lemon’s acquaintance, who had the weapon, presented a concealed-carry license and was let go too, police said. In the course of questioning, security told police that they had attacked Lemon first.

About a day later, Lemon was admitted to the University of Chicago Medical Center for injuries he received to his head, according to police. Doctors said Lemon suffered from a brain hemorrhage. #PRAYERS
