Black Police Hater Terrence L. Strong, 28, charged with attacking police held without bail

A routine traffic stop in an Englewood parking lot quickly turned into a scuffle as a Jackson Park Highlands man punched and kicked three Chicago police officers, grabbing for one of their duty weapons before he was arrested, prosecutors said Saturday.

Terrence L. Strong, 28, was ordered held without bail Saturday during a bond hearing at the Leighton Criminal Courts Building.

Strong, of the 6700 block of South Constance Avenue, faces a number of felony charges including several counts of aggravated battery to a police officer and attempting to disarm a police officer in an incident that injured a veteran police captain and two female officers, authorities said.

The incident began as a simple traffic stop due to the expired registration on the 2001 silver Chevy Impala that Strong was driving at about 5:12 p.m. Friday at a parking lot in the 6800 block of South Loomis Boulevard in the Englewood neighborhood, prosecutors said.
