Another One Bites the Dust
- A Calumet City man fleeing Chicago police was killed late Thursday during an exchange of gunfire with an officer on the city's Far South Side, police said.
Police determined this afternoon that the "officer was within department guidelines in use of force with [a] service weapon," according to Chicago Police Department spokeswoman Monique Bond.
And everyone who is supposed to go home safe, went home safe.

an off topic question----why is it that the 008th dist is always in a backlog and 10sector cars are sent to the 30sector. but the 008th dist holds a car down 2 or 3 times aweek from 1800-2100hrs playing private security guard for the c.r.o.e. yes thats right 008th district taxpayers. 008 holds a car down watching the parking lot for the coalition for the rememberance of elijah muhammed at 71/campbell.
Unfortunately, their will be alot of off duty shit happening including off duty shootings in 004. No police presence and no police back-up or response to emergency's means we all have to act and take the law in our own hands because their are No police on the streets in 004. Fucking ridiculous if you ask me. A high concentration of good tax paying citizens including tons of city workers but NO police. Mayor Daley, Alderman Pope and the 004th district commander cares little about our safety and our concerns.

NOT JUST IN 004 008 AND MOST LIKELY EVERY OTHER DISTRICT CITYWIDE! DUMP TRUE AND OTHER BULLSHIT UNITS AND PUT THEM IN DISTRICTS WHERE WE NEED POLICE!
Good job to whomever! Glad YOU are okay!!
CPD - 1
DUDE - 0
Don't blame the Cmdr. of 004 for the lack of Police over there. All of the Cmdrs. are well aware of the manpower restraints, and have been begging for bodies for since before LAST summer. The Academy can only send so many out, and then it takes 18 months before they can work with non-seasoned officers. Add to that the bodies bled off into the specialized units, and we all know the results.
And as it has been pointed out before, POOR SUPERVISION runs rampant on this dept. 1 hr+ paper jobs with no arrests, 2/3 hr. misdemeanor arrests, no one calls these people on the carpet for excessive time spent performing many daily, rountine assignments that just drag on and on...until this last issue is properly addressed by conscientious supervisors who work TOGETHER to clamp down on it, the word "backlog" will continue to be heard on various CPD radios with increasing frequency.
ALL I HAVE TO SAY, IS THAT THE RESPONSE TO THIS SHOOTING WAS UNBELIEVABLE! THE BACK UP WAS THERE IN SECONDS! BEING ONE OF THE OFFICERS INVOLVED IN THIS, I FELT GREAT KNOWING THAT HELP CAME THIS QUICK! GREAT JOB TO THE 005TH DISTRICT, 022ND DISTRICT, A/2 GANGS, A/2 DETECTIVES AND ALL WHO HELPED OUT!
The m-f'r pointed a gun at the P.O. in return the m-f'r got well deserved 2 rounds from a .45 in the chest area. I say, NICE SHOT!!!
BUY THE P.O. A KEG OF THE GOOD STUFF!
Smoke em if ya got em !

You must be a sgt. On days in older stations, if you work 99 and make an arrest, you have to get someone to watch your prisoner each time you have to leave the "holding" room while you go to the desk to make notifications, get the arrest approved, do an inventory, etc. It takes time and in addition the computers are slow.
Also, the ways things are now, I always make sure I do a thorough job, since assholes like you will throw me to the wolves the minute I make a mistake. Fortunately, there is only one like you that i know of in my district.

"2/3 hr. misdemeanor arrests, no one calls these people on the carpet for excessive time spent performing many daily, rountine assignments that just drag on and on."
Like automated Arrest is a user friendly? Perhaps the WC can curtail his cruising the district 3 hours for the freebie lunchspot?
How about the Domestic & in-progress calls with 10minutes left in the tour when early cars are already out on the street?
Hey Super Sarge BITE ME ASSJAG!!
The guys from the A/2 midnite gang team did and outstanding job.The response that they got proves everyone in the Area knows that when these guys come on the zone that their shit is for real.Outstanding shoot guys, I look forward to seeing you guys in my district. "No rest for the wicked"!
