Father of 'America's worst mayor' Tiffany Henyard is Shot in Chicago as She Calls for Trump to Bring Troops into Windy City​


The father of embattled former Illinois mayor Tiffany Henyard has been shot in Chicago, prompting the politician, infamously dubbed as 'America's worst mayor,' to plead for federal intervention.

Henyard took to social media to confirm that her father, Ronald, was the victim in the shooting, adding in a Facebook statement that she's 'deeply saddened to have to address the issue'.

The 65-year-old was shot in the neck in an alley in the 1300 block of South Kedzie Avenue in the city’s North Lawndale neighborhood at around 5.54pm on Wednesday, police said.

He was rushed to Mount Sinai Hospital, where he remains in serious condition. No arrests have been made and detectives are investigating.

Henyard urged Illinois Governor JB Pritzker and Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson to ‘seriously reconsider federal assistance’ from President Donald J. Trump.

‘Across the country, communities that have welcomed federal support have experienced measurable reductions in crime,’ she wrote, pointing to Memphis, Washington, D.C., and New Orleans.

Her plea marks a shift for the former Democrat, who is now running as a Republican in Georgia after relocating following her time in Illinois politics.
