At about 12:42 a.m. in the 8000 block of South Prairie Avenue an unknown offender was attempting a robbery. An off-duty police officer saw the offender and fired but did not strike the offender, according to Chicago Police News Affairs Officer Amina Greer.

The offender fled the scene and no one was in custody as of 5 a.m., Greer said.
I hope this perp is found!
