The man who allegedly fired on police officers and paramedics and wounded a Jewish man in Rogers Park over the weekend had planned his attack and targeted members of the Jewish faith, according to Chicago police officials.

Sidi Mohamed Abdallahi, 22, who already faced attempted murder charges will now face additional terrorism and hate crime charges, Chicago and Cook County officials announced Thursday afternoon.

“We want everybody to know we will never tolerate violence that’s rooted in hate and bigotry,” Police Superintendent Larry Snelling said.

Abdallahi was already charged earlier this week with six counts of attempted first-degree murder, seven counts of aggravated discharge of a firearm toward a police officer or firefighter and one count of aggravated battery.

But Snelling said additional investigation was necessary to determine a motive, and after reviewing Abdallahi’s phone, police learned he had allegedly planned to attack Jewish people in the shooting.

The incident began around 9:30 a.m. Saturday when a 39-year-old man was shot in the back of his shoulder while walking in the 2600 block of West Farwell Avenue. The gunman did not say a word before opening fire, Snelling said at a Monday news conference.

After being assisted by passersby, the man who was shot was taken to a nearby hospital where he was treated and released, officials said.

When police arrived to investigate the shooting just before 10 a.m., a man shot at officers from a nearby alley, Snelling said. Officers returned fire, touching off a firefight that lasted two and a half minutes and ended when Abdallahi was struck.

Abdallahi was critically injured and remains hospitalized as of Thursday.

An ambulance was damaged by the gunfire, but no officers or paramedics were injured.

Snelling said his department will be deploying additional resources around religious institutions in the area. Cook County State’s Attorney Kim Foxx said the attack “stoked incredible fear” in those living in the Rogers Park community

“(The shooting) was not spur of the moment, not to simply rattle at the time, but to inflict terror,” she said.

Abdallahi is due in court for a hearing Nov. 7, Foxx said, assuming he is able to appear in person.

“It’s not only hideous, it’s wicked,” Mayor Brandon Johnson said, adding the shootings were “clearly motivated by hate — hatred toward the Jewish community.”

Ald. Debra Silverstein, the Chicago City Council’s only Jewish member, had called for hate crime charges after the shooting, noting that the victim was in traditional Orthodox dress and on his way to synagogue to celebrate Shabbat when he was shot.

Silverstein on Thursday said she had spent her week trying to calm a “very nervous community.”

“I want to thank you for your patience,” she said. “I know it’s been a very, very difficult time for all of us. I do just want to say one thing about the Jewish community, we are strong, united, resilient and we will remain that way.”
