A Rumor of Crime
If true, how does this not make the news?
- Big caper Sat Night in 16th Dist. 3 M/1's armed with hand guns and wearing ski masks entered the Baker Square restaurant at Harlem & Foster, and ducted taped 11 people and put them in the cooler and robbed them. Wonder why that didn't make the news?
Brown's Chicken, Lane Bryant, the start of this "bumblebee" bandit shooting, there's quite a list. Can anyone up north verify?
And here's a scary thought - if this one went south, J-Fled's homicide reduction totals are out the window.

Partially true. Check out HS656877. Only two victims bound.
Stuff has been going under the radar for the last few years with the news media. They used to have young freelance reporter/photographers who used to listen to police and fire scanners and go pick up on news stories like that. They would shoot some film, (does anyone else actually remember 35mm Kodak Tri-X Black & White) and run downtown to the Sun-Times and Tribune buildings and process that film. If they were lucky, they would get $25-50 for a photo with a caption. I use to do that in the late 60's and 70's, not a lot of money but it was an adventure and got to see your photo with your name on a by-line.
Now there's hardly any news media left at all. A busy overnight City Room now is just a couple of young reporters who make phone calls. Rarely, but I have seen it done, do they ever leave the office to pursue a story.
I recall the motto of the now defunct City News Bureau, "If your mother tells you that she loves you, check it out." Not a lot of time or space to check things out anymore.
Stay safe; make sure you fax a copy of the case report to News Affairs.

If this is remotely true and went unreported... oh never mind. The last thing the media wants to report on is THE TRUTH!
No blood - No foul right?
/sarcasim
And the last thing to do is get caught in something like this while armed with a 5 shot snub....
Carry the service pistol and throw a spare magazine in the pocket. Combine the holiday season with a bad economy...you get the picture.
Holy shit! Brown's Chicken, Lane Bryant and Baker's Square?
They're obviously targeting FAT people!
SPECIAL ATTENTION:
BE careful out there overeaters. We just don't know where the violence against obese people will strike again.
Old Country Buffet? Denny's? McDonald's? Super China Buffet? Ice Cream Parlors?
Keep in mind, if you change your eating patterns; overeating, denial, obsessive habits, etc,
THESE FOOD TERR*RISTS HAVE WON!
Why is it that when crimes of this nature happen in 016, it's big news? These incidents happen EVERYWHERE. Obviously, someone decided it wasn't big news, and the media were either not informed, or was asked to look the other way on this one. It's not like that's never happened before either in reporting crimes (or NOT) in Lincoln Park, Beverly or Hyde Park.
I'll tell you why it did not make the news. The majority that live in that area are white people that have jobs, take responsibility for their actions and don't call 911 everytime a neighbor is doing something that may irritate them.
Nothing newsworthy here.
But have this same scenario on the south side and it would be the lead story on the 5,6 and 10 news. News trucks would line the streets with reporters hoping to get an interview with some momma crying to the camera as to why, oh why does this happen to HER people!
Hey! Does this mean that Jodie will be pulling coppers from the South and West side to bring them up North to help the escalating crime wave?
Naw. I didn't think so.
two words "concealed carry"
MMMMM!!! FRENCH SILK PIE......
AY CARUMBA!!! NARANJAS EN MI CABZEA!!! NO ES BUENO!!!
Shit Like this happens because they close down fuc-n project buildings like Cabrini, shipping these fuc-in s-it bags into our neighborhoods that we work our asses off to afford by giving them section 8 housing. Ill bet these fuc-s live west of Cumberland and north of Foster in section 8.
black on white crime does not fit the liberal agenda. but if a black bike thief gets the shit beat out of him by whites in armour square the president (clinton) holds a press conference.
to 3.18, you are correct---the days of carrying a 5 shot are over.
Carrying a full sized duty pistol off duty is a little much and too big for the summer.
The Glock 26, aka "The Baby Glock" is perfect for off duty use. With an extended, finger curl, mag you have 13 rounds at the ready.
The Glock 36 is a .45acp with 6+1 rounds that is physically the same size as the G-26.
There is always a case made for the .380s, but they don't quite pack the punch.
I have gotten remiss over the past couple of years over off duty carry, no more and I live about 2 blocks away from Harlem/Foster.
Remember that jewelry store on Harlem by Addison that got robbed a few years back? M1's walked in, OC sprayed the place, then looted it.

Shit, if criminals were targeting Fat People Phil Cline would have been taken captive at Old Country Buffet on numerous occasions.
Stop making shit up. Funny shit, sure, but do criminals carry enough duct tape to wrap around Cline?
I rest my case.
It was probably because there was little radio traffic about it to begin with. The news scanners were busy with MWG calls in 010, 011 and 007.
There were few or no injuries.
Somebody didn't call, (maybe on purpose) News Affairs, or any reporters they knew.
No shots were fired, no drunkin cops involved, so why get excited.
The old relationships that cops and reporters used to have retired with John "Bulldog" Drummond.
The only police up here are off duty being forced to live in this shithole of a city. All the on duty police have been sent south and the evil people know it. This department sucks!!!!!!!
Are early car start times changing next year? FLOP newsletter says 2130 start time will be 2200...wazzup?
Baker's square was robbed but come on ... it didn't happen that way at all.
I thought of moving up there in '04 but I'll be damned if I'm paying that high of taxes to live in a Chicago house, have shitty schools, having renters and their predator cousins and play cousins living around me and I decided against it. Daley ruined this city when he tore down the projects and by allowing this to be a sanctuary city. Third world people bring third world problems. Now I have to go and tear down my garage and park my "ban" on the concrete slab then after that I'll sit on the porch while my wife braids my hair, and then maybe I'll get into a shirtless fight.
Gee! With all you "Protect The Homeland" types residing in 016, you'd think at least a couple would've been in the joint. Crime in the great, pristine Jefferson Park! Say it aint so.
Seriously, who gives a fuck!
BUT WE HAVE THE CRYSTAL BALL UNIT.
Get rid of that joke of a fucking unit, and that'll save us some money!
The were nt duct taped or put in the cooler
What the fuck, didn't read ANYTHING in the papers or the papers/mainstream medias websites.
How is it possible the Predictive Analysis Unit didn't pick up on this one? Did his Magic 8-Ball spring a leak.
I have lived in 016 all of my life and have seen it slowly decay into just another crime ridden part of the city. When I came on the job in 1978, 016 was copland. The bad guys knew not to even mess around there and I raised a family there. Now my son is a cop and he lives by Foster and Oak Park and even there some gangbangers have moved in and slowly infiltrated the neighborhood.
Oh yeah if I were a criminal, Thats where I would go 16,22,8. Jody announces that he is pulling coppers from good districts to send to the ghetto. You don't have to be a rocket scientist to think this shit isn't coming. Where there used to be 6 cars there is now 2. NICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
you should see how much crime is happening in the 4th dist and nobody in the neighborhood knows about it. people have a right to know the whens, wheres and whats are happening where they live and where they and their family frequent. shh - it's a secret that the mayor and police supt don't want you to know anything about how dangerous chicago really is

So when was the last time there was a takeove-style robbery, with 3 armed individuals, in a public restaurant that resulted in 11 victims being bound and stuffed in a cooler? Ya know, since stuff like this happens all the time.
I'm a cop. I'm not white. I live 3 blocks from Foster and Harlem. According to the racist fuck that posted earlier. I must be living in the wrong area.
Criminal Trespass to Land at best kid, now stop calling A/5 with your b.s.
"Mr. Emanuel, if you were mayor of Chicago would you make Chicago police officers and firefighters reside in Chicago?"
Unfortunately, the objection to question was sustained.
Off topic:
Orland Park police just released the video of the LA Tan attempt armed robbery.
Bad ass move by the second victim. He remained calm and saved his life, as well as, the young girl working the counter. She dialed 911just after the male victim grabbed the offenders gun. La Tan gave the male victim a $5000 dollar reward and free tans for life. I don't tan but that is a stand up company. Most companies would duck and hide. I wish a happy holidays to both victims, you desreve it. Stay safe.
A cooler that will hold 11 pie eaters I don't think so

If you carry a 5 shot, carry two of them.
Those Glocks are great, if they are Dept.approved. The G36 has been problematic for some .
Small .380s are very convenient for lazy people. The Kahr is the only one good for more than 30 feet, because it has real sights. I think small .380s are more for civilians that dont want to get caught with a gun.
he should explain why we have to live in chicago when this non resident of chicago is running for mayor?
I live in old Norwood Park This area is safe, Great neighbors Beautiful Homes (ALL DIFFERENT) My home is an English Tutor When I walk in that door my stress level drops, Yet my taxes are Twice what I would pay in another area, even in this recession the house is costly.when I leave in a couple of years. That's the only thing I will miss. More Probable then Not I will be selling to a city worker.

ASA 400 to start with, could be push-developed a lot faster, at the expense of a grainier shot. Used it for at least thirty years. All gone out of the Walgreens now, hard to find. Still have my tanks, thermometers, everything.
What I want it a device that converts my digital photos to archival 35mm negatives hypo-eliminated, washed/stabilized for at least a 250-year shelf life, folded in little sulfur-free glassine folders, all stored in a .50 cal. can purged with superdry nitrogen...
Bother me enough and I'll start coating my own glass plates again and doing the black-focusing-hood number with the view camera...
"shirtless fight"s
Still laughing while I type this. thanks for the laugh...it's so true.
I'll tell you why it did not make the news. The majority that live in that area are white people that have jobs, take responsibility for their actions and don't call 911 everytime a neighbor is doing something that may irritate them.
This white employed north-side guy would certainly call 911 if I had just been held hostage at gunpoint. So WDF was YOUR point?
Yes you are.

Read the case report. There were two victims "put" in a cooler and they weren't bound.
this whole fuckin City is one giant Jerry Springer Show now, and Dildo Dick Daley is the new Jerry Springer.

Oh, okay, then; that makes it okay, because it was 'only' two people instead of eleven.
Seriously, are you all nuts? I guarantee, if you were taken from a store and 'put' in a cooler, you'd think it was a pretty big deal. Why, you might even think you were about to become a murder victim, a la Brown's Chicken.
A little perspective here. Yes, it was newsworthy. No, News Affairs does NOT want this type of story to get out. Jody wants peace and love for his last three months here. Can't land a Federal spot if we go out the door with a tarnished rep, now can we?

I used to use a Speed Grahic 4x5 Camera. It is what the E.T.s and Crime Lab used in the 1970's and even into the early 80's.
Think of all the historic photos that you have seen all of your life that were taken with something like that.
nobody was bound

Your home teaches English? What a deal you've got. I think it's "Tudor," genious.
Via Chicago News Report :
Bakers Square
English Tudor. You need an English tutor.
As usual, another piss poor job by the media. They wait for the story to come to them, they don't find it. It doesn't even say how much "dough" they got from the Bakers Square robbery. Idiots.
Family size duct tape.

It's "genius" Einstein. But thanks for the laff.
"South of the Kennedy" is Ghetto? Please!
I live south of the Kennedy, up near HIP. "ghetto" is every place lately. Shit heads are living on northwest Highway for Gd's sake.
Scary case that didn't make the news: remember that last year phoenix was the kidnapping capital of the country with over 300 kidnappings related to the drug trade. now look at the three born-in-mexico-dont-live-in-chicago mexicans arrested in 008 on dec 10 or 11. excellent job by plain-clothes team that rescued the kidnapping victim and arrested one scumbag. and then they caught the three remaining offenders in a car with texas plates heading south on I-94. the cartels are sending goons up here to do the dirty work now? and the media didn't get this? but when blacks do a kidnapping it makes the news? why was this one suppressed?
We are getting the same shit in Garfield ridge! Burglaries up the ass,gang punks everywhere wtf we have no leaders at the top to defend us and now our neighborhoods are going to shit! daley talks about the pension funding will force people that actually pay taxes to leave! No mayor dumbo the crime is causing many to leave!
I would guess that this robbery is"an inside job...." A former employee or the boyfriend of an employee..... the amount of monety that was taken was a good amount, so it was nt a guess by the bad guys .............
Carry a weapon of duty, and handcuffs you use them more than a pistol...........

With the projects gone, all the shitheads had to be shipped somewhere. Guess What? They came to our neighborhoods. I see it all the time in 17.
All the new condos that were built with the hope of attracting the yuppies and assorted working people are becoming section 8 now. I walk around the neighboorhood clutching a pistol in my pocket nowadays. Sad.
Holy shit! Brown's Chicken, Lane Bryant and Baker's Square?
They're obviously targeting FAT people!
Christ! That does it. I'm putting in for that foot post first thing tomorrow. That way I can sneak into the station on Mon - Wed - Fri's and get my 2 hr work out in on company time. On Tues and Thurs I'll just go on the air and have the dispatcher tell my Sgt I don't have a car so I can get my full work out in ........and go home early.
Maybe because all we took were pies OK, maybe that's why Bat Masterson. Call off the BOLO.
"I walk around the neighboorhood clutching a pistol in my pocket nowadays. Sad.

is that really a pistol, or are you just glad ta see me?
Live in Old Norwood Park....I am already locked and loaded. Don't come here! You're fucking with the wrong peoples!
Clutching a pistol my ass! Have it your way. That pantomime would carry a bit more realism however if you could convince your "pistol" to refrain from having seizures in your pocket. Mrs. Cratchett
