The father of former Dolton Mayor Tiffany Henyard, who dubbed herself “super mayor,” was critically wounded in a Chicago shooting Wednesday, prompting her to urge Illinois leaders to consider President Donald Trump’s offer to send federal resources to the city.
Henyard’s father, 65, was shot in the neck in an alley in the 1300 block of South Kedzie Avenue in Chicago’s North Lawndale neighborhood around 5:54 p.m., police said. He was taken to Mount Sinai Hospital in serious condition.
