Impersonators

  • Police are looking for three or four men accused of trying to get into Northwest Side homes by pretending to be Chicago cops.

    In three separate incidents in the last week, the men, ranging in age from about 18 to 36 years old, knocked on the doors of homes, telling homeowners they were police officers or undercover officers, a community alert from Grand Central Area detectives said.

    In each, the men had police paraphernalia, such as gold badges and radios. In two of the attempts, they got into the homes but later fled in a large, dark red SUV or navy Blue Town & Country van, the alert said.

Hunt them down.

My first concern would be whether or not they're armed.

You'd probably have to blast them immediately, as you'd certainly be in fear of your life.

Just saying.

The Mayor isn't hiring police, insists that crime is down and a Superintendant that agrees with this.
Here's what The mayor did last night at St. Sabino :
"....Mayor Rahm Emanuel joined with parents on the South Side Tuesday night to remember 263 schoolchildren killed by violence in the city in recent years."
So what's he doing about it? Closing police stations and lock ups, having police babysit the Daleys & Burkes and others. Buying cemetery property, building boathouses, & providing jumping jacks. Two-thirds of my tax bill going to Bd. of Ed to produce idiot kids that can't read but stay out all night & shoot each other.
No new hires to replace 1500+ retirees in the past 3 years, no promotions either. That's a moral boost, eh?
When seconds count, police are minutes/miles away.

Now what happens? I defend my self? most people have never had cops pound on their door (I have... my neighbor is 2 time felon). We need some standards here to citizens have some rights in these situations. even if armed I would have a REAL PROBLEM shooting someone with a badge even if I had doubts about them.

No Parking Zone Reminder
Parents, please note that the east side of Osceola Avenue adjacent to the school and parking lot is a No-Parking/Tow Zone when school is in session.

Recently, the City of Chicago Department of Revenue has begun to enforce no-parking zones around the church and it may be reasonable to expect similar enforcement efforts around the school.

And along with this, the public should know we have more active robbery crews working at one time city wide than ever. Burglaries are way up. Ruse entry scams are up. Home Invasions are up. We know (CPD) that we're in the middle of a crime surge, as we enter the double dip recession. I think things are going to get very bad on the streets for the next few years. Now should be the time to re-invest in the police dept., but that's not going to happen.

If it's gypsies doing this, then the media and CPD should use the term when reporting these crimes to the public.

Many of the victims and a lot of NW Siders are older and immigrants, they know what a gypsy is and may be able to spot one a mile away.

If the public knew what to look for, they may even call 911 if they see a 'suspicious person' that looks out of place.

They are actually Rahm's new Revenue Enhancement Unit.

They work for a small percentage and make it look like there are more police on the street.

Seriously, take a look at your home, your parent's and friend's homes and see if there are signs that make it look like and soft target with a big payoff. Like the gypsies looking for the lace curtains and the big lampshades thing.

Search on-line for where you show up and alter and delete stuff such as in, whitepages.com, and what would a bad guy find out about you on your or your friends Facebook pages. On some websites where they require DOBs I have always used a 10 year younger one to avoid be made a victim, soon I should use a 20 years younger DOB.

Better than unlisted, home phone number can be put in phony names. There’s no $1.50 a month charge and if you get a call asking for that name you know where they got it.

Talk to guys who do search warrants about keeping handguns hidden but safe as in inaccessible to kids but ready when you need it. I won't post those ideas here.

Maybe they were just older looking Trick or Treaters.

When I was a kid, Halloween was second to only Christmas and your own birthday. We would spend weeks creating our costumes, Frankenstein’s Monster, The Mummy or a soldier or a pirate. And these were made costumes not bought.

Was it just me or did anyone else notice that there were fewer Trick or Treaters than ever this year and very little effort spent on costumes. The kids that came to kids that came to our door were more beggars than Halloween revelers.

One of the larger groups of kids has their parents with them and here there were few costumes and everyone looked very glum. No yelling, Trick or Treat! No smiles, nothing, just holding the bags open as I dropped in the candy.

As the kids walked down the stairs I noticed one in the back of the pack. He was wearing a gray suit and fiddling with a Blackberry. He was wearing a Rahm Emanuel mask. I motioned him to come and get his ration of candy and he just looked at me with those raccoon eyes of his, turned and walked away.

I asked one of the parents on the porch what the heck was wrong, why was everyone so glum and what was with that kid in the Rahm mask?

The parent said that the Rahm-kid was taking half of everyone’s candy and charging the parents a buck and a quarter for every block they visited.

Oh, well at least one kid worked on his costumes.

On Tuesday, 01 Nov, the CFD dive squad responded to 2 men in the river at North Ave. After pulling th men from the water, CPD Marine unit van arrived on the scene and 2 CPD officers, 1 in a wetsuir and 1 in uniform were told by a Cfd captain named Altman that they could not come on the scene. When they attempted to wald around the Captain, who was highly intoxicated, Altman grabbed one officer J.S. and threw him to the ground where he struck his head on the rocks. When the officer attempted to get up, he was punched repeatedly by Altman until he was subdued by CPD and Cfd personnel on the scene. The fireman then hustled theit drunken Capt onto the fire truck and fled the scene.

A beat car was called the scene, a case report prepared naming Altmen as the offender and CPD officer to hospital for treatment.

Altman placed in custody and taken to A/5 where ADS Georgios initially approved charges against Altman until he received a call from City Hall ordering Altmans' release. Altman is the saon of Edward Altman who was Fire Commissioner until being forced to resign over a video of a racially charged retirement party at a south side fire house. Did I mention that the battered PO is black? The PO was advised to get a warrant. Can you believe this? Only in Chicago could an on duty PO be the victim of an Agg Batt by an on duty clouted fire Capt and be told to get a warrant. Unbelievable!

014 dist 01NOV11 approx 0100hrs North Ave & river RD# pulled for battery to P.O. Offender listed is a CFD Captain injured officer is IOD. City hall is attempting to cover the incident up. If you want answers look it up or for the media file a F.O.I request. Also it's believed that WGN has it on tape. Officer should make some big money on this one with a lawsuit against CPD & CFD and city. Oh and the FOP also knows about the battery. Lets see How Shields handles this one.

Sorry Lt. S.C. But it was even less funny and disingenuine this time, than when it bombed on you the other day in roll call. Carry on.

They are Gypsies guys....

Here's what Gypsies' looks for to "mark" a house.
1. The "we call police" sign - they know just by that sign that a senior person lives there and this sign is a false sense of security for said senior.

2. The drapes in the front window. Anyone can figure out that old drapes hide old people in the house.

3. Handicapped ramp is also a give away.

-----------------
I doubt he gets so much as a nickel beyond normal injured on the job benefits. Employees covered by worker's comp or similar systems lose the right to sue their employers over on the job injuries. It is part of the deal.

There may be potential to sue the attacker, but unless there is some actual financial loss, there is not much to sue for since the losses are largely made up by the city through its injured on the job benefits.

Citizens if you don't think the guy at your door is a cop, call 911 and ask for a supervisor in a marked car. If it's the real police it won't be an issue to do this for you.
