Chicago’s interim top cop is reversing course on the decision to continue a White Sox game after two women were shot inside the ballpark last month. Speaking to the Sun Times, Interim CPD superintendent Fred Waller said the August 25th game against the Oakland A’s should have been stopped or at least delayed. He said the game was allowed to continue without interruption due to “miscommunication,” adding that they didn’t think it was an active shooter. Waller said they have taken some steps to make sure another situation like that one doesn’t happen again.
