CHICAGO — A purported gang member arrested this week for allegedly shooting a year-old girl last summer tried to escape by climbing into the drop-ceiling of a police interrogation room, authorities said.
Malik Jackson, 17, didn’t get very far — but officials upped his charges to include attempted escape and criminal damage to property.
When he was being questioned at Area 2 police headquarters on the Far South Side Tuesday, Jackson allegedly tried to escape by scaling the wall and climbing into the drop ceiling in an interview room.
Detectives heard the tile falling, and Jackson was detained in the ceiling above. Jackson’s alleged antics damaged the ceiling. It will cost $350 to repair.
