Shots Fired in Copland
Two men were arrested this afternoon after off-duty officers spotted the suspects breaking into cars in a hospital parking lot on the Northwest Side, police said.
The incident happened at about 2 p.m. in the 7500 block of West Talcott Avenue in the parking lot of Resurrection Medical Center, according to a police statement. Resurrection College Prep High School is on the same block.
Citizens and off-duty police officers were exiting the hospital when they spotted two men in the parking lot apparently breaking into vehicles.
The officers identified themselves as police and ordered the men to stop, but they instead got into a vehicle and started fleeing the scene, police said. In the process, police said, the man tried to run down pedestrians, including one of the officers.
Fearing for his safety, the officer shot at the vehicle, police said. No one was hit in the incident.
To our north side brothers and sisters - better stock up on the ammunition and keep an eye on each other. You're all going to be pulling a double shift - eight hours at work and another shift watching the yards, alleys and parking lots.

Every car in 016 was down on it including "Helecopter 1" . . .
Squad can I get lunch ??
QUESTION?
Who is the female officer assigned to 016 that stated she DOES NOT do inventories?
When the watch commander attempted to force her to inventory a purse she called "her clout"..
Deputy Chief Ricco...
he then told the Watch Commander to get someone else to do the job????
What the hell????
good job officers both at Res Hosp and at 63 & Ashland
Off Topic What about that ass hole in Arlington Hts who killed his father
If this aint a death penalty case.
Oh we dont have a death penalty here
Thanks Quinn
Not a police officer but have a police related question.
My neighbor and friend is an officer with the Chicago Police. His wife is having a birthday shindig for him in a couple weeks.
I noticed the flashlight he carries is a very small, rinky-dink thing that fits in a shirt pocket.
I wanted to pick him up one of the old Maglite 6D's (the biggest one they make). I remember coppers using them years ago, before they came out with those modern little hollow clubs that retract back into the handle. My uncle was CPD in the 60's-80's and said he wouldn't trade his big maglite for anything.
Does anyone know if it's OK for him to use the big maglite at work? I'm buying it for him either way, but hoping he can put it to use outside the household.
Thanks
RCW, Northwest Side Chicago
My heartfelt thanks to the off-duty officers. I have an elderly uncle and aunt who live on Talcott just a few doors down from the hospital.
Have been keeping an eye out up here for a long time. A-holes everywhere on the NW side.
This is the second off duty shots fired at offender in the past month that I know of in that area.
What's happening up here, Rahm?
Like the Southside, Westside and Southwest side cops have been doing for, oh, the last 15 or so years ago.
It is a shame that i don't ever see the police at all in my neighborhood.
I am in 16th and it really sucks that we lose our police officers to the ghettos!!
Don't they already have extra police because of all the "special units" that are in the ghettos?
I will end this by saying...Awesome job by the officers that ran that shithead over!!! LMAO all day!
The entire city of Chicago will change in the next ten years. And that change won't be good. All of the so called nice and safe neighborhoods that will slowly turn into shit. 016/Copland is slowly turning into shit and guess what? There is nothing we can do about it because the criminal element does not fear the police anymore. In the old days, the shitheads, shitbags, gangbangers, etc... wouldn't even think about going into Copland and mess around. But now, they don't care, they have no fear for the off duty or on duty cops who live in Copland. It'll be a very interesting few years in Chicago.
Who are these two scumbags and what it their race? The Northwest side is getting filled with shit. Keep an eye out for these shitbirds and take action, fuck them! Good job officers.
Nothing on the channel 2 news last night regarding this incident. But OMG dont even think of mistreating someone if your the Police. It will be all over the news. I tell my neighbors everyday. Call Police for anything/anyone that looks suspicious or out of place. These mutts have no business being around here.
Quiet nieghborhoods? Section 8 is popping up thru out the 016 district. It ain't quiet no more.
Now is that an area scheduled by the revrunds to be a prostitution free zone or a cop free zone, I am confused?
What the hell kind of city is this when officers can't relax and enjoy a day OFF? And to the dumb ass civilians, your day is coming when YOU fail to report a crime and you get arrested - assholes.
Great job to our stars and hope you get an extra day off - just make you leave this dump
Don't ever leave your home unarmed, even on a 10 minute run to Jewel or Walgreen's. The animal is everywhere now, not like the old days when he used to stay put. Don't forget the BMW carjacking at the Harlem/Foster Jewel.
Many shitheads get off the Blue Line at Harlem or Cumberland to wreak havoc where the money is.
Don't hesitate to call for anything suspicious, the 016 guys are great about coming out for suspicious persons. I have called on several occasions and 016 has either caught them with proceeds or burglar tools.
As a long-time (voluntary -- non-City employee) resident of the neighborhood around Resurrection, I know and am grateful for the vigilance (on- and off-duty) of my many neighbors who are the police.
Thank you.
A lot of burglaries to garages up here too. Keep your eyes open neighbors.
To the guy looking to by the mag flashlight-the dept doesn't allow us to carry that anymore. They said we used too much as an impact weapon. Try the smaller flashlight that they sell at Shore galleries in Linciolnwood. They can help you out. Tell ur buddy happy birthday from a blog poster.
It's a good lesson to show that carrying off duty is a must.
You never know when the shit will find you when you aren't looking for it.
SCC, you seem to give grief, and rightfully so, to many exempts. In this incident, you fail to recognize one of these off duty officers was an exempt, and a stand up guy at that! Let's give credit where credit is due.
Not a single mention of this on either 2, 5, ot 7. Just a mention on wgn internet!
Does anyone know if it's OK for him to use the big maglite at work? I'm buying it for him either way, but hoping he can put it to use outside the household.

No, another great tool taken away from us from doing our job safely. Remember we don't want to offend anyone with a scary flashlight!!
So the whole city is turning to shit because they don't fear us anymore. Take a look in the mirror pal. Maybe you are starting to fear them? I for one worked very hard for what I have, and for the place that I call home. I don't fear these SOB's or anyone else. I take extra precautions because I know that I can no longer count on you to back me up. I see it every day at work. But that is not going to stop me from doing what I am supposed to do even if it is for an uncaring and undeserving public. If anyone on the home front feels it necessary to do their job properly I will be there to back you up and I will do what ever is necessary to secure my security and that of the good persons arround me. Those kids in the 16th district do a lot more than any of you west side warriors give then credit for. If you feel they are inadequate come on out and give them a hand and teach them how it's supposed to be done.
Dear RCW:
regarding flashlights, prescribed type is the shitty streamlight that lasts about 15 minutes and then u have to charge it for 10 hrs. Everyday i see all kinds of flashlights people carry, from tiny to big, different brands. Maglite is a no-no due to being metal, god knows you might be tempted to defend life life with it and hit somebody. For household use maglite is awesome, get him the rechargable led one or look into 5.11 ones. I have one and im very happy with it. recharge time is like a minute. apparently new polymer battery, will see how long will last. Avoid flashlights that take 123 batteries, they are small and work nice but batteries are expensive.
To all my friends on the northwest side. It took a while but the beast has found your little pocket. They found Beverly 25 years ago, but took till 2010 for them to find Northwest Hwy area. Moretti's is gonna start seeing a more diverse crowd. DOH and good luck with that.
PH-1 has been flying circles around Fenger 24/7 for the last two years, ever since Derrion bought it. Glad to see it was able to venture out.
Heard one of the local tow guys heard the chase on the scanner, and ended up finding the astro van traveling down higgins. he saw the shitheads bail out of the vehicle and called 016 desk right away with the location. identified the driver in a lineup.
Good work guys all around!
CBS2Chicago online has the shitbag brutality victim story above police officer shot. Reward the jagoff and punish the middle class worker. The media, politicians, and judges have created a beast and they don't know how to stop it.
Arm up boys and girls the riots are coming.
Light up every shitbag that don't belong in your neighborhood.
Does not do inventories? For real? And calls a commander, who backs her? I am truly hoping I am missing something. That is an officer's job, oh and also the responsibility of the desk sergeant or watch commander to tell the princess to grow up..and f off.
Does anyone know if it's OK for him to use the big maglite at work?
No way dude, its like having holy water in police HQ. Banned
Yep, that is exactly what I would do: Use my clout to have a boss call a watch commander to make someone else inventory something. If I was that boss, I would delete her number from my phone. Your phone just got disconnected! She simply makes it more difficult for females who do the job, to "do the job." Thanks baby, and sorry 016!
RWC,
We can't use the big flashlights anymore. You'll have to go with something small like the Streamlight Strion.

Rahm Emanuel Considering White House Drug Czar for Police Superintendent:
Chicago - Mayor-Elect Rahm Emanuel may be close to filling another key position.
White House Drug Czar Gil Kerlikowske is under consideration to head the chicago Police Department, according to the Chicago News Cooperative .
Kerlikowske previously served as police chief in Seattle, and police commissioner in Buffalo.
Nice job officers.
Look, I live in 016 too. There are definitely shitbirds in 016. It's a city, and cities have shitbirds and streets that connect nice neighborhoods to other neighborhoods. Some people, even if they are good people, have kids that go wrong. However, pretending that ANYWHERE in 016 is "bad" is just silly. Even the southern end of 016 is nicer than lots of the city.
Keep your eyes open, and enjoy life a little.
"Who is the female officer assigned to 016 that stated she DOES NOT do inventories?"
Probably the sister of the one in 025 at the desk that won't do female searches.
But they sure love cashing the same paycheck.
To the guy asking about the maglites. Unfortunatly the department no longer authorizes the big flashlights, except for a few units.The small ones are the ones the department replaced, I believe there were some national incidents involving the big lights being linked to police brutality charges. I'm not sure if we had some local incidents also. But it's been a long time now, that the department took the big lights away!
this maybe is the CHANGE we were promised over two years ago?

016 is quickly changing into garbage. The only choice is for the decent people to move the fuck out. I am not a city employee and I am not forced to live here. I am moving out of state in four years when both myself and my wife retire. We will move down to Florida. Also, since we bought our house in 1975, we can afford to sell it away for a very low price and then quickly leave. I feel sorry for city workers and other people who have to live in Chicago and deal with the changes going on in Chicago.

a Heartfelt Thanks to the off duty cops n brave folks who got together to stop a REAL Dumb Idea in the REs parking Lot. i have family who work there n have been watchful for the Last couple of yrs of a Changing Area.
i see no problem with sending 16th Dist. Officers to the ghettos if the mayor and superintendent promise to keep the shit heads of this city on the west side and south side. But they won't and can't make a promise like that so being a citizen (for now) of this great city and ret. from CPD after listening to the lies of the brass and politicians and will not support any anti-taxpayer decision. By the was did anyone see the joke the Emanuel wants to hire as school chief? Want a fucking joke. THIS IDIOT COULDN'T FIND HIS ASS WITH BOTH HANDS.

How do people get away with shit like that? I'm on 1st watch in a shit district, I'm gonna tell my boss I don't do 6050's and see how that goes. And while we're at it, I'll also pass on traffic accidents.
Note to the poster about the 016th District "purse inventory' incident:
If what you're posting here is true, the problem isn't the female officer, or even the watch commander.
The problem is with Riccio, who even took the call
from the officer, then turned around and spoke to
the WC, interceding on her behalf. As a retired
former commander I can tell you there is no way
I would have even taken a call from a Patrolman
about such an trivial incident, let alone interfere
with a watch commander's request that an officer
perform a job related task. If, and I say if, Riccio
did what is alleged here, shame on HIM.
When does the BS end? Everybody has to know
their place in the organization for it to work.
Far too much of this 'reach around' BS went on
during the last CPD regime, and it's going to
have to stop if the Dept. is ever going to get
back on track. It's even worse when exempts
don't respect the chain of command that exists
around them.

Listen here pal, I never stated that I was afraid or fearful of the beast invading our district and neighborhoods. But what would you suppose we off duty police do when we do see the beast? Come on, let's hear your suggestion. It's a lose-lose situation. Now, if they engage in criminal activity, then I will do everything in my power and heart to stop them. Not in my backyard!
I just stated an obvious fact- the beast is here, the beast is roaming our streets and the beast doesn't fear the off duty police that live in Copland. Sorry if the facts hurt you and you don't want to accept them. But these are the times we are living in.
016th. District Needs The Police.
Two Issues Are At Work Here.
1. The 016th. district has a large inventory of police officers, that are not up to the task. I will not go into the details.
2. The 016th. district has a large inventory of recent residents that do not want, nor know how to function in a civilized society. Many have been placed there through government assistance.
On a related topic, for years the worst thing 016th. police officers had to deal with, was the politics of the job,auto accidents,drunken drivers, and spoiled brat children of fellow police, and city workers.

HOW ABOUT HER CLOUT TELLING HER TO DO THE INVENTORY& DON'T CALL HIM W/THIS TYPE OF B.S.?
I've had nothing but good results the couple of times I've dealt with 16th dist. police. Once when my son was jumped by jagoffs from way out of the neighborhood. Another time when some punk broke my car window (with me in it). And in dealing with a runaway teen situation we found ourselves in the middle of. Very professional and supportive within the bounds of what they could do.

Get your head out of your ass. He was the rep for this district and part of the problem. All of these democrats are the problem. They all wanted a sanctuary city and the cops reigned in. Now they got the city they deserve.
I am SO tired of these entitled, do-nothing females that think that police work is beneath them. I am a female with 15 years on the job, and even as a detective, I will still search or do any other part of the job that we all are paid to do. This has always been a pet peeve of mine, and hate to see women get a bad rap because of these lazy ass broads. If you don't want to do your job, find a different line of work!!!
I had the same officer once tell me on an accident that she is not issuing tickets because she does not have a ticket book and there is no "victim" since the driver took down a cemetery fence... I ordered her to go in and write the tickets as the cemetery "IS" the victim.. She did as told now had a ticket book assigned to her..

Not allowed for use anymore -- it was too good a defensive weapon. Everybody used to walk into domestics, etc., of course both of 'em are holding their flashlights. Talk to the people, very low-key, looking around at the pictures on the wall, say that's a nice table there, shine the light up on the ceiling, it's a little distraction from the situation -- and of course kerpow if suddenly needed. Invaluable.
To tell the truth -- and I am a big guy -- the C-cell lights always fit my hand better. I can get my fingers all the way around those and I think deliver more force/have better retention. I used the 3D small-head Kel-Lite for years but it really was a lit-tle too big to really grip properly.
Today you need a kerosene lantern to peer into corners, a whistle, and a key for the call box...

CPS leased some disused industrial building around the 6000 N. block there back around 1999 as a school for the violent, don't-fit-in, etc. All of a sudden I'm hearing this loud, lecturesome female voice from the street below, it's a God-damned teacher leading thirty of 'em on a freaking walking tour not where she lives, but RIGHT WHERE I LIVE. Like they really need to know where an Edward Jones brokerage office is -- you know, manage their accounts and so forth, right?
Hey, thanks so much -- as I told her.
They'd have them out on the cement sidewalk with dirt rakes -- not leaf rakes -- scraping at the cement, marking it up, as though there was anything there to clean up. "Neighborhood participation." One time a blizzard hit and they blew out the school doors at go-home time, went wild up and down NW Hwy, crawling over the employees' parked cars outside the old Safco Corp., pulling at door handles, looking inside. "GET AWAY FROM THAT CAR!"
Don't know if that "school" is still there.

Couldn't even be troubled to find some wrapping paper or a long cardboard gun box so I could inconspicuously get a purchase out to my vehicle. Petty-ass fools.
Used stuff sold as new (not even cleaned properly, like a barrel full of heavy green copper fouling is normal) defective weapons with cracked frames and other serious mechanical defects put out for purchase, etc.
Hope the few bucks was worth it.
The purse incident in 016 is real. It happened on the 2nd watch. It also happened over a year ago and the female P.O. no longer works in 016. Neither does the w/c involved.
Shit, neither do I.
Some news travels awfully slow.
RCW- buy the damn thing. I also carry a Maglight but it's the newer LED. It does however look like the old style one that carried about,IIRC, five or six D batteries. No one is going to say anything about it. I keep mine in the trunk of the car. At the beginning of my tour I take it out and at the end I put it back. No big deal. Now if he clobbers some knuckle head over the head with it, that's another story.

Hahaha, I can appreciate your hyper-suspicion- if I were in your line of work, I'd definitely be that way too- but my question was absolutely sincere.

"Yeah, but unfortunately five other goofs actually answered the question. Guys, if you really believed that was somebody wanting to buy a birthday gift, you're soft.
It was somebody cleverly asking if we're allowed to carry maglites or not. And you spoon-fed it to him."
Hahaha, I can appreciate your hyper-suspicion- if I were in your line of work, I'd definitely be that way too- but my question was absolutely sincere. It's not like asking about a flashlight is a big deal. I could understand if I were asking what time patrol cars were going to be passing by (Spot XYZ), but sheesh... It's just a flashlight.

I'll give you credit for doing what you do well. You're clever. But don't disrespect me by trying to convince me you're 'just a buddy looking to buy a flashlight'.
An attorney, looking to set up a lawsuit? Now, THAT I can believe.
"The things that were left out is that the two M/1's involved were residents of the west side and south side respectively - and that of course the van was stolen. The gentlemen that observed this were visiting a sick relative and luckily happened to see these two animals cruising the lot getting in cars."

Thanks, I figured that.
Still waiting for names, ages, charges -- sounds like multiple counts of attempted murder would be appropriate to start with...
All in all, though, the last time I ran stats on that NW side area within a one-mile radius, there were maybe 26 crimes reported that week -- domestic, telephone harassment, theft, etc.
Now center it at Central and Madison. Holy s__t. Over 250 crimes that week -- and heavy ones, all homicides, armed robberies, ag bats, rapes, burglaries, auto thefts. Those were just the ones that got reported.
Just a reality check, lookin' at the pretty dots on the different maps -- count your blessings.
I am a senior citizen and I do not intend to become a victim. I live in the 16th District. I don't trust anyone. I carry a Glock .40. Nothing more dangerous than a frightend senior citizen. Life sentence to me is only about 5 years, maybe.
