Cops Rescue Family
Couple of guys from 025 see smoke over in 011 and do what just about every cop on the job would do:
- Police officers rescued a woman and her two children from a fire in the Near Northwest Side Humboldt Park neighborhood Monday morning.
Firefighters were notified of a fire in the 1100 block of North Ridgeway Avenue at 11:15 a.m., according to Fire Media Affairs spokesman Rich Rosado. A still-and-box alarm was called for the fire, which was extinguished about 11:35 a.m., he said. The building is a one-and-a-half story brick home. [...] the tactical police officers left their district when they saw the smoke.
"It was kind of a desperate feeling out there," said Chicago Police Officer Joshua Diaz. "You know there is a child in there, you know there is a mom in there."
The officers caught the child dropped by the mother and then caught her as she jumped out the window. An excellent job all around. They really ought to frame this quote from the local aldercreature:
- "This is something that I thank God that those police officers happened to be in the area at that time," said Ald. Walter Burnett.
Channel 2 also covers the story.
No truth to the rumor that Danny Davis insisted the victims were racially profiled, but Mope-rah is investigating claims that all of the rescuers were either white or hispanic and they really ought to have waited for a black officer to come by and pitch in.

Thanks Area Deputy Chief know wonder you let kids get killed in Town HAll back in the Day! Now you have no shame but to get an alderman to give a press conferrance for some hero cops! WTF!!!Excuse me I spilled my drink on the dept computor
Why WHy was Ald Barnet on TV with the Hero Cops?
Good Work! Makes up for some of the BS from SOS
Hey man, that looks like smoke. What should we do partna.
Call up dem cake-ass firefighters I don't get paid 'nough for dis shit.
Catching and the mother & Kid was easy. It began to be a bitch when they try to save the Grand Piano and the New WaterBed.
The Chicago Bears offered those two cops a position with the Bears as wide receivers.
After catching the baby, the officer ran 100 yards for a touchdown. Sad to report that the baby got slightly injured when it was kicked for the extra point.
The hair gel officer said that he had a flash back to his college football days and it wasn't on purpose.
SEE WHAT DID I TELL YA ABOUT HIRING COLLEGE GUYS FOR THIS JOB? LOL
Let us be thankful it wasn't either two Cubs or Bears players that stopped to help. There would of been two for two misses.
good job fellow officers...
Off Topic Tobias is going to be off the job before Jan 1st 08.
-----------------
are you a recruit that he fired?
Thank you so much for posting a positive story about the Police. Now all who comment please keep it positive and leave all BS comments off the blog.
Think You ASSHATS can stop parking in front of the building on fire? Leave room for the real men to do their work. Don't woory you can still get smoke on your clothes and get your time off for doing what we do every day!
Rough crowd!!!....Good job guys.

Let's hope! Maybe more white shirts also!
Will the officers who left their area of assignment please step forward to pick up their C.R. #'s.
You are now going to be dumped off the tac team.
Oh, thanks for a job well done officer!
Rumor has it, the officers "robbed" that womans house and threw her out the window, and lit the place on fire. Congressman Davis says so.
nice job guys, and remember there isnt a bad one among us EVEN THE GUYS FROM SOS
GREAT JOB OFFICERS, YOU SHOULDVE MADE THE FIRST PAGE!
Lets face it, when it comes to FIRES, THE FIREMEN ARE THE LAST FUCKING GUYS ON THE SCENE, and 99.9% of the time by the time they get there, the Police have already evacuated, removed, or saved those in the building/structure.
This excludes Paramedics who work their asses off for less pay than Firemen.
And for the Tenth Millionth time, will our Chicago Firemen please, please, please stop talking about 911 and New York! You've exploited it enough. Fact is, mostly every copper knows how hard you guys really work.
Peace
You all did a great job and should be proud. The 025th district is a district that is filled with heroes that go out there everyday and do the job. I am lucky to work with a great bunch of ladies and gentlemen who are the working police.
Quote from Danny Davis:
"I never heard of a law against burning your own house. I am appalled and disgusted that this woman and her child were dragged out of their home by these white officers for no other reason other than they were burning while black."
The bad news is the family was trying to commit suicide and are now sueing the officers for thworting their attempt. They want millions for mental anguish. Good luck campers!
Good job seriously.
Now wait for the media to flip it on you, get sued, indicted and screwed completely.
rumor has it that a Lt and detective class may start early december
Being an old timer, I just wonder how many PO's are stripped in the dept.?
Fucking hair gel coppers get the cameras, and I get to chase some more late paper. This department is so fucked right now.
I'm going to have my daughter throw her cat out the window. Fucker better land in my arms. Fuck why even bother? The cat will leap somewhere else, and I'll be front page news for letting him run away.
Now a turtle, that's something I can catch pretty easily. Too bad it's so fucking cold out. It'll be like catching a ball in the first inning of one of those winter 16-inch tourneys.
Now fire has someone to blame for the missing property at the house fire.
Good work from the guys in 25. Press conference must have been early in the day thou. Deputy S. Christi*n actual looked sober!

That asshole is not a friend to the police HE wants the names of officers released. I would have never stood with that ass or and other alderman that isnt are friend. the rookie cops were probably strong armed to stand with him.
Thank their lucky stars that Phil Cline wasn't inthat apartment too. That would of left a mark!
Matt "the Small Hockey Stick" isn't going anywhere, buddy. The Stacy Bream Child is going to be promoted again after the new supt is in place. Bet on it!
Was the cop wearing a Catch-her mitt?
You failed to mention that they jumped from the basement apartment window. That does make it a hell of a lot easier to catch.
GOD BLESS THOSE OFFICERS , MADE ME FEEL PROUD TO BE A CPD.
With my luck, I would look up to the window and see Ronnie Luberman, fresh from the shower, waiting to jump in my arms. But that's my luck.

Quit whinning boy! Matt is only going up in rank buddy. So keep your jealous pie-hole shut. He had nothing to do with what the P.O.'s were doing. He is a good honest hard working guy who knows his stuff.
Regardig the following post.

________________________________
Get it straight. Lt. Richie Scotchbreath is the 8th Dist Tac Lt. and would never rise to the rank of a Area Deputy Chief. Hand picked by Molloy and twice merit promoted. Once to Sgt and once to Lt.
The alderman would of caught the mom and baby but due to his hands being so greased, he would of dropped them.
I once caught a woman falling off the bar stool next to me and I didn't get all this attention and awards. Life is so unfair.
It would turned out a lot better if the officer would of not caught the mother while the baby was still in his hands.
The Officers that save the lives of the poeple in the house have been put in for the life saving award.
They are also the subject of a CR. number for leaving their district of assignment.
Welcome to Starks new Chicago Police Dept.
Burnett was there because there had to be a black influence in the story. Shame on the D/C for pandering to him.
Now Fuckhead Beavers is crying racism because the Cook County Commissioners won't pass his puppet's (Stroger) tax hikes. He is even signaling out Peraica saying he hates all black people.
When all else fails, play the race card!
It is hilarious to watch this decrepid old fool babble.
SCC, link it from ABC or NBC.
The reports have it all wrong. It was Seiser who not only saved the baby - but then pulled out his hose and doused the fire. Seiser calls it his 'two for one' special.
Just a thought for officer safety. Don't kick in that door without touching it first. If it's hot you are not doing any one a favor by kicking it in. You may spread the fire faster with an increased oxygen supply. If it is smokey, stay low. Even the firefighters don't go in without air tanks.

Great work guys! Keep safe and God Bless.
Whatever happened to Ricky Guerrero? remember the "Teflon JUAN" is he still on the job?
Is there any truth to the rumor that with the introduction of the SMART car in the USA come January, the CPD will be launching a pilot program with these tiny (only 9 feet long) European autos in Disricts 016, 017 and 019?

if you work in the busiest firehouse in the city, your chances of getting a fire are slim at best on one of your days, so stop with the bullshit !

this is a joke...right ? I would hope so, as the patch says "CHICAGO" and I have been detailed all over the city. If this is true, why do we still work ?
did sgt. a.z. from 011 paper jump on this one to get another life saving award?
Leave the firemen alone. They do their job, we do ours. No they are not as busy as they used to be due to smoke alarms and sprinkler systems, but who gives a shit. My only question is this: when the firemen make a rescue, they get front page coverage. Doesn't this fall under doing the job? I guaranfuckintee if that was a fireman who caught the lady and the kid, it's on the front of the scumtimes and all over the tv. Coppers do it and it rates page six, right above the botox ads. Hard to figure out the media sometimes. Or maybe it isn't.
COS: beat so and so, theres a man down at such and such corner.
Beat car: is fire responding?
COS: no they aren't coming, they returned to quarters.
Beat car: fuck it, so are we.
A man can dream can't he?
SORRY GUYS: you did a great job, but i swear i would never ever have given the reporters a fucking interview..dont tell me you had to..i know the commander he is a great guy,,but if you would have told him no..i dont talk to jagoffs im sure he would have understood. With all the shit that has happens in the 25th dist over that past few years,you know the press always treated you guys like dog shit and now you get on all fours and give them a interview.sorry i dont belive anyone in patrol should bow down to theses bastards...you guys are good guys and great policeman, but fuck the press....25yr vet...I/F
"Tha Box Chevy Phantom sez..."
Uhhhh... Wait a sec... "TWEET, foul on the m/f&%#ing playing field!" Is there any substance to the p.o.'s from 025 supposedly have been subjected to a c/r#? If so, which wet-eyed, tea cake nibbling, mentally defective waste of a pregnancy - alleged supervisor initiated the #?
Heaven forbid if outside coppers are rolling past your house and they watch your loved ones burn alive because they took the MINIMUM POLICE ACTION by contacting C.F.D. (anonymous cuz well, they're an outside/adjoining unit so hell no they're not going to risk a c/r for going above and beyond... Besides, our fearless bleeders have said any and all c/r#'s will count against you office! So don't let these flaming, assclown whiteshirts "dirty" you up). So when mr/miss super supervisor wants to know why the working police didn't dash in and save Gram, Poindexter and Itchy & Scratchy, just say "With all due respect sir/ma'am. I did not wish to exceed the scope of my duties, as I would have been off my assigned post and subject to discipline had I entered the premise. But I did take appropriate police action by ensuring that immediate and timely notification to C.F.D was made".
What can they do? Get a c/r because you hurt their little feelings? (well, some super supervisors do but that is another post).
BTW, good job by the coppers... they should get life saving awards, and not some sillyshit honorable mention just because they didn't get injured either. The spvr who got the c/r# should be outed... who done it??

better watch yourself!! AZ will find out who you are and he and his fiancee (tricky) "will take care of business!". dont worry though, that mainly entails crying the blues and kissing each other.
DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW LT. MASTERS IS DOING IN 025? HE WAS GREAT TO WORK FOR IN 007
11/27/2007 10:58:00 PM
Masters?? It depends on what time of the night you talk to him if hes in a good mood or not. Decent with requests, but VERY moody.
"And for the Tenth Millionth time, will our Chicago Firemen please, please, please stop talking about 911 and New York! You've exploited it enough. Fact is, mostly every copper knows how hard you guys really work."
It's not just the city. the FD in my tiny little suburb are all full of that s#*t, too.
There is no CR#.
The Alderman was not invited by anybody at the District. The 6 P.O.s involved will be put in for more than one award.
Finally, if C.P.D. did not give an interview, the only story to air would have been Junebug telling how he saved the day.
If you have good news, share it. This Department has a public relations problem.
These are the (boring) facts.
GOOD JOB J. BURG
No offense to the working coppers in 007, but when guy used to be an ADS and now is a Lt. working midnights in 007, he's definately still being punished. As for RG being good to work for, yeah, so long as he doesn't develop a romantic interest in you! If he does, the look out. The guy is definately a stalker.
Great publicity for the CPD finally. Great job guys! Event though we all know you were poaching, but that makes no difference here.
My only question here did Sgt Adam attempt to jump on the paper?
p.s. Hey Tomma-bunns get your finger outta your nose!!
WHICH SGT IN 025 GOT THR CR NO, ON THE HERO P.O.s?
Watch out!
After the awards and glamour are over, these Officers will get gigged for being out of their District and get a day without pay!
9:57
MASTERS MOODY? WHEN IN 007 HE WAS A BIT OF THE SAME WAY. YOU HAVE TO UNDERSTAND THAT HE HAS A DRY SENSE OF HUMOR, AND IF HE LIKES YOU AND KNOWS YOUR NOT A DOG, HE'LL GIVE YOU ANYTHING YOU WANT.
ITS TOO BAD HE LEFT 007. BUT BEING A NORTHSIDER, HE HAD A PRETTY GOOD COMMUTE.
AND R.G.DSPITE HIS PAST, I'M GLAD HE'S WITH US IN 007. I CANT' EVEN BEGIN TO TELL OF THE CLOWNS WE'VE HAD IN THE PAST, WHITE SHIRTS ON ALL LEVELS.
Think You ASSHATS can stop parking in front of the building on fire? Leave room for the real men to do their work. Don't woory you can still get smoke on your clothes and get your time off for doing what we do every day!
