Danny Golden case: Suspect seeks bond review in shooting of off-duty cop

One of the suspects in connection to the shooting of off-duty Chicago cop Danny Golden asked for a judge to review his bond, in hopes of getting out of jail.

CHICAGO - A suspect involved in the shooting of off-duty Chicago police officer Danny Golden asked a judge Thursday to be released from jail as he awaits trial.

Bryant Hayes, 22, is facing attempted murder charges, and is among three suspects charged in the shooting and paralyzing of Golden.

Golden was shot in the back when he tried to break up a fight at a Beverly bar in July.

The bullet severed his spine, leaving him paralyzed. 

Chicago Ald. Matt O'Shea was among those in attendance at the courthouse Thursday. He said allowing Hayes to be released would "seriously jeopardize public safety."
