Shooting Near 010 (UPDATED)

  • One man was arrested for shooting at another down the street from a West Side Chicago police station Thursday night, police said, citing preliminary information.

    The second man, who told police he was being shot at, also was taken into custody when officers caught up with him and found a gun in his possession, police added.

    That sequence of events started about 8 p.m. at West Ogden and South Sawyer avenues, near the Ogden District police station, 3315 W. Ogden Ave.
UPDATE: It seems this wasn't gunfire at all, but rather the heat. You see, the sun heats the plastic in the garbage cans during the warm day, then the rapid cooling when the sun goes down sounds like the "pop pop pop" of gunfire. As a precaution though, police officials have notified Rahm and citizens are being asked to remove themselves from the North Lawndale area.

And it wasn't gangs either, so get that silly idea out of your head. There are no gangs in North Lawndale. Or Little Village. Or Garfield Park. Or Englewood, Austin, and certainly not at the lakefront, so knock it off.

Our federal court just ruled that the taxpayers will be paying the attorneys' fees for the prevailing party in the recent gun suit against the City. The City spent a considerable sum of money on their own attorneys and now they are paying opposing counsel as well. What a waste of taxpayers dollars.

All the talk of how broke the City is and we throw money away. Where is the accountablity?

The next waste of taxpayer dollars will occur if the City and State change the pensions of incumbant employees. Whether the millionaires behind the Commerical Club of Chicago like it or not, the fact is the State Constitution clearly prohibits the type of changes being proposed by that organization as evidenced by numerous legal opinions and the legislative history.

The result will be the same. The attorneys will win and more precious public dollars will be handed over to attorneys trying to defend an unconsitutional law.

Maybe they just don't care, after all some of the Commercial Club's rich members are from big law firms. Again, who is accountable?

True, ALL Area One Detectives are mostly useless as are the beat coppers trying to do a thankless job with little to no resources.

Still, Area One Detectives are doing a job that would make any citizen puke and cry themselves to sleep every night. They are also considered to have some of the finest Detectives in the department if not the world.

The path to enlightenment is realizing you know nothing and are mostly useless but keep trying to learn everyday.

The incident in 010 was handled very well by all involved, from the commander on scene all the way down to the last officer. Thank GOD we're all safe and a stray round did not hit an innocent going by or a PO in the station lot. Two offenders, three scenes, and alot of chaos but the officers did a great job. As usual ghetto officers jump in and handle it without any question. Back up came from everywhere, including officers running out of the station. When I see this it makes me proud to be a Chicago Police Officer. Keep the faith, back each other up, this dept. is gonna get better.

Ohio woman, 100, has bank account dating to 1913

AP

By DOUG WHITEMAN, Associated Press – Fri Jun 3, 6:34 am ET

"CHILLICOTHE, Ohio – An Ohio woman who just turned 100 years old has taken customer loyalty to the extreme: She's still using a bank savings account that's been around almost as long as she has, since the year before World War I.

"June Gregg recently mentioned to a friend that her account is the same one her father opened for her in January 1913..."

Then...

"As a gift, the bank will bump up Gregg's interest rate for the next 100 days to around 5 percent, about 5 times the average going rate..."

Actually douche, I work on a tact team in Area 1 and yes, it does make me miserable to see the A/1SVU dicks glorified, when right next door the RBT and HGSCU dicks are some of the best around if not on the job.
And yes it does make me miserable to see the SVU dicks glorified when more often than not the experiences dealing with most, not all, i.e Sgt J.D., are painful.
Just to clarify , to the obvious SVU dick that it is b/c of coppers paperwork fuckups, are you fucking serious? and yes I realize the order states to exhaust all efforts in contacting the parent of the animal, but my job is not a fucking babysitter for the little shit and I don't enjoy being held captive by some fuck like you.
I by no means feel that the job of detective is easy one, my point was just that I realize the department was and is skeptical about letting our department be filmed. Having said that, SVU is the last place I would start. So , I guess to address your miserable statement , your right when it comes to glorifying those that don't deserve it, but so goes the CPD.

What does it take for a 'merit promoted' SVU detective to take a notification or even come out?
Granted the D-Unit citywide is short, but in 25 years of doing missing persons case reports, calling in the notification is still and will always be a drag.
Yeah, the A&E show is baloney. Chicago, (home of the gullible) probably believes what they seen on this program. (Just like A3 hunting down R.J. Vanecko.)
Because follow-ups weren't done due to manpower shortage, some wild youth wanders away from an incestuous crackhouse, winds up dead along railroads tracks, and now there's all out search being conducted for every poor soul that doesn't want to come home.

Even though the Detective Divisions citywide are short,
remember this America..." area detectives are investigating and nobody is in custody."
This Department is so screwed up by the appointed of Lord Daley,Shanks of Short.

Take it easy on the SVU detectives. There are good and bad detectives in SVU, just as there are in HGS and RBT. there are some HGS diks who are never assigned a homicide because they don't know how and aren't trusted. See who is always sent out to the crime scenes. Some people are in HGS because of clout and nothing else. Same with RBT. There are some detectives in SVU who were the working police in patrol but didn't have the phone call to get to HGS or RBT. Do you really think bosses are looking at resumes and arrest statistics when they assign people to different detective sections?

There are incompetents everywhere, including asshats who splurge on this blog disparaging fellow officers. someday that officer may be the closest officer when you are calling for help.

also remember, the detectives, on a daily basis, have to clean up messes caused by p.o.s. we also read every case report generated in the field. and there is some really bad case reporting going on. many p.o.s have had their asses saved in court and at corp counsel by a detective supplementary report. an old fto told me, you can do great police work, but you have to know how to write it on paper and know how to articulate it in court to be a good police officer.

learn the laws. know the orders. CYA. and don't blame the diks for your screwups and incompetencies. and don't expect the diks to do your work. you do yours. the diks will do theirs. that's when it all works out right.

Neil, (Chicago Sun Times)

I started reading your column on Friday June 3 rd, I was relieved when I read past the first paragraph which ended that they were sniffing each others butts. When this paragraph started with the Palmer House, a banquet setting, and piano players all I thought about was the good old days of piano bars until the butt sniffing started. I thought you were talking about an after "wedding" celebration from Millennium Park. I was just "appalled" that you might be making fun of the wedding and butt sniffing. Well take care Neil, I'll be taking to you.

Even tho I used to work SVU and do Missings, I will not even bother to tune in. Anyone that expects TV to be real has some issues.

With over 20,000 Missing Persons Reports a year, and the vast majority are from a small number of juveniles, it is just "keep the boxes moving." One kid had over 40 reports in 1 year.

The parents (or foster parents) don't really care. They report the kid missing because they have to keep the stipend coming. And they also believe that, having reported the kid missing to the police, the police are liable if anything happens to the kid. Just CYA.

The group homes tell them, when they get to rowdy, to take a walk and cool off. The kids are reported missing to cover the staff's ass.

Still remember the old-timer who walked a kid into the youth office and said, "He's all yours now" and walked out. He was shocked, SHOCKED, I say, when he was called back in off the street and told the days of youth guys doing the paper were long gone.
Oh, how I the J-cards and the special-order cabinets made just to hold them. Not.

On the West Side...

we used to say..

Today's victim is tomorrows offender.

The time frame has been shortened.

And who told McCarthy NOT any MSF or TRU cops back into 010?

But someone has the good sense to send what is left of Area 4 Teams there for a back-up.

GMAC says you don't need any TRU or MSF guys cause those aren't gangbangers they are just suburban kids enjoying the nice weather.

this is he second time in two years where there has been a shooting out in front o the station. Last one a couple of years ago on 3rd watch the offender ran through the lot dropping his gun and making good his escape. It's good to see everyone responding and making sure everybody was caught. Also, without the MSF resources anymore, the 010 th dist will be going up for grabs this summer.

There was also a homicide on the sidewalk of the west lot two tears ago. Offender caught after a chase that ended near Marquette park.

...Still, Area One Detectives are doing a job that would make any citizen puke and cry themselves to sleep every night. They are also considered to have some of the finest Detectives in the department if not the world.

The path to enlightenment is realizing you know nothing and are mostly useless but keep trying to learn everyday.

Never give up

good for you...I see you as more of the problem in our country nowadays, sad to say. There are two words that quickly come to mind, ummm...entitlement is one, the other is enabler...funny how that works - right Detective? Maybe you can help the other dics with their cases instead of trying to make a case numerous 'activists' are all too willing to make.

also remember, the detectives, on a daily basis, have to clean up messes caused by p.o.s. we also read every case report generated in the field.

I agree there is some bad case reporting going on, but... ruffled some feathers, huh big city detectives?

ACTUALLY, the Acting Supe is waiting for city council confirmation, which should come next week, barring any revolts. The changes will then come and everyone will be in or out of place by July 1st.

Miss. How I MISS. What I missed was proofreading my post and I missed the missing 'miss'.

(It must be the heat. Gonna blame everything on the heat for awhile, I think.)

The group homes tell them, when they get to rowdy, to take a walk and cool off. The kids are reported missing to cover the staff's ass.

6/03/2011 11:12:00 PM

The group homes are not allowed to lay hands on the little darlings, either, so, if the kid walks out, they cannot restrain them from leaving. Then the home makes a missing report.

Experienced beat guys don't pull the rd until the very last possible moment, because so many of the kids come sauntering back in while the report's being done.

Still, hundreds of unnecessary reports are generated each month. What we need is a policy that won't allow the homes to file a report til a kid age 12 or over has been missing a minimum requirement of six or eight hours.
And NO report if the home knows where the kid is. If the kid has gone back to their house, their family, etc., then it should be an internal DCFS memo, not a missing persons report. It isn't a police matter and we shouldn't have to shill for DCFS or the privately funded halfway houses.

I put Schmear on my bagel in the morning and Dr Pap Schmear was a character in the "Naked Gun" movies.

I guess that name is better than Schmuck (sorry Ron) or PPO Doodoo (true--look him up)
