Giving up play-calling duties to offensive coordinator Bill Lazor was not an easy move. But it’s giving the Bears’ offense a chance to move forward — and Nagy a chance to be a better head coach.
The 30-year-old was sitting in his 2014 KIA Sportage in the 5100 block of West Montana Street about 1:50 a.m. when two males forced him out at gunpoint, Chicago police said. The man then got into a Chrysler van and, along with the KIA, struck several parked vehicles, police said.

The fatal attack occurred in Gresham on the South Side.
The 35-year-old woman was at a party in the 3700 block of South Wood Street about 12:30 a.m. when she was shot in the face after her boyfriend’s gun accidentally went off, Chicago police said.
