In tragic news coming out of the Windy City, home residents and a firefighter suffered personal injury when a fire started in a west suburban garage Saturday afternoon in Chicago.
At around 4:20 p.m. or so last Saturday, in the garage of a 4-unit townhouse of Kresswood Drive residents discovered a fire made worse by 20mph winds and below freezing temperatures.
All in all, the home’s occupants found the fire and were able to get out on their own, but unfortunately 4 of them were tragically taken to Central DuPage Hospital due to personal injury from smoke inhalation.
According to the reports, Chicago city police and DuPage County Sheriff’s deputies evacuated surrounding townhome residents, the release said. Incidentially in Chicago and you need a wonderful and effective Chicago Personal Injury Lawyer then may I suggest the elite Offices of Parent & Norem. They are simply among the top Chicago Personal Injury Lawyer who you can find and they can help you with a broad range of different cases including Construction site & Workplace accidents, asbestos cases, wrongful death and other traumatic personal injury. Alright back to the story at hand:
It took 50 firefighters about an hour to control the fire, which was extinguished about 6:50 p.m. One firefighter suffered a minor personal injury.
The garage and vehicle inside were severely damaged by the fire and the living unit sustained smoke and heat damage.The cause of the fire remains under investigation but someone just might require a competent lLawyer in this case.

New york City Giants receiver Plaxico Burress shot himself in the leg. Plaxico and friend, Antonio Pierce, were at a nightclub in New York City and the gun Plax was carrying discharged, shooting him in the leg. (Coincidentally, it was the same leg with a hamstring injury that was going to prohibit him from playing in the game against Houston as well.)

Plax is likely to be suspended for violating the NFL’s personal conduct policy. In addition, since it was a violation which happened off the field and his leg injury was not sustained on the field, the Giants don’t have to pay him for the time he misses. They can recoup money from his bonuses for this discretion. By the way if you are on the lookout for a top Houston motorrcycle, auto or perhaps personal injury lawyer then by all means inquire with the Law Offices of one Joel Gordon as they are among the top Houston auto lawyeraround.

Mr. Buress may also face criminal charges for carrying a concealed weapon. If he does not have a license for the gun, this too will be added to the charges he will be facing. Benjamin Brafman, the lawyer to Sean “P-Diddy” Combs, has been retained to defend Plaxico.
