Bad Crash
Nothing about this looked good:
- A police officer responding to a burglary call was injured in a traffic crash in the Logan Square neighborhood this afternoon, authorities said. The officer, whose age and sex were not released by police, was in a squad car that collided with another vehicle near Sacramento Avenue and George Street about 1:15 p.m., said Chicago Police Department News Affairs
Prayers and well wishes to the Officer only in this thread please.

He is hurting but will be fine. He's very, very lucky.
My prayers are with this Officer. Godspeed. And same for the family. You are all in my thoughts.
I don't care what caused it and I don't care about the blame game; I just hope that everyone involved recovers FULLY. What a terrible way to end a terrible year.
Prayers for injured officer. May you all get home safe tonite!
Praise those Detroit vehicles!
Thank God it wasn't a Prius hybrid or a hybrid horse that your American hating "green" city-zens want you to uphold the law with.
Is the p.o. in serious-to-critical condition, or was the other driver?The story was a bit ambiguous. I hope he/she is ok. Get well soon.
How's the officer doing? I haven't heard an update
Prayers to you office & your family that you will be at home resting from a crash that definitely was surrounded with angels. Continuous blessings in 2013 & stop by a church when you are able to say thanks & a prayer for all first responders.
"Where's their beat tag".. Get well soon. Being an officer with many broken bones from such occurrences I cringe looking at those pictures. That was asked of me while laying on the stretcher. Get well soon have a better new year.
Get well officer, sorry to say this, but it doesn't pay to race to the scene. Only for 10-1's. Until the city hires additional officers, citizens will have to wait just a little longer for service.
God Bless everyone involved, the officer/s, civillians/citizens, if any. Hope he/she/they make a speedy recovery.
Get well and feel mo betta soon Office!
May the lord heal your wounds and your family find comfort that you are ok. God bless you!
"Liiike a glove!" ... Get well buddy, don't hurry back too quick now
Did we catch the burglar?
Not worth it guys and gals. IT'S A PROPERTY CRIME!!
Be safe and check off the same way you started.
As long as he/she is OK, all is well. Get well office...
As a resident of 014 and a fellow copper - I just have to say thanks for this officer. Get well, heal up and you are in my thoughts!
Ok now to monday QB that is why you drive in a safe manner. Get well
Chris you are a re-re!!! But I hope you feel better and I'm glad your not dead. I will be busting your balls from now until retirement.

McGoof needs to stay off the streets, he just gets in the way. along with our dumbass commander she didnt do shit when she was a blue shirt i dont know why shes doing shit now GO BACK TO YOUR OFFICE JOB and leave the p.o's alone

Probably fell off, from the looks of it! (Or they don't have one because the city is low...we make our own out of paper when they go missing)
What a way to parallel park.
A little bondo and that'll come right out
Now that the Officer is safe and is going recover, this will definitely be one he will talk and laugh about for years to come.
people,humans officer wake up this is not how the west was won this is 2013 now slow your ass down no need to rush. no need for this vehicle damage non what sp ever !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Not to mention CFD...they demanded to DUI an officer at scene of an accident....
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Thats why they dont get the same courtesy.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Keep driving those red vehicles so we know not to pull you over...
I work in 009 and NEVER take out a Tahoe. I always take out a car. The Tahoes are not good pursuit cars.
Welcome the New Year and the new commander of 20th district hope you clean house and keep and eye on your school units officer and traffic cars and get rid of those burglary mission scrap!!!!!!!!!!! no more 2006 cars waist of time !! good luck and happy new year 2013!
Wait, someone asked "where's your beat tag?" Was it Sgt M on midnights in 006?? Typical petty heavy stripe wearing got picked on in high school sgt.
Wow. that had to hurt. I hear the officer is doing fine though.
Sergeant returning home from work at 6am seriously injured in accident on I90. Prayers are with you.
Congrats to the amigos on the Northside having the first born in 2013 at Luthern General.
Get well officers, Godspeed.
Take your time.
By the time you get back we'll have found a way to re-classify it as...
'Parking Lot Damage'
Get well, be safe and take it very, very easy.
I'm praying for you officer, and your family. God Speed.
Retired CPD
GOD SPEED OFFICE.
This officer had an angel on his/her shoulder. Could have been much worse. Feel better soon.
Best wishes for a speedy recovery!
God bless everyone involved. May all involved parties recover fully from their injuries.
Ummm, actually te Prius has among the very highest safty ratings.
This is what happens when manpower is stretched so thin that you have to bounce from one end of the Dist to the other.
C'mon. Look at the pictures. That's not a "crash." That's just a "scare."
It was "in the [fill in blank] neighborhood," too, so it's all good. It's a "community" joint.
Now that that's out of the way...oh boy. Thank God it wasn't much worse. Best wishes to injured officer and family and others affected. All I see is the "ripple effect" -- the phone rings at home, then a dozen calls are made, then 50 people are running around...now other folks don't have their car, someone has to go get their kids, etc., etc...
Heard the "Super Sergeant" struck again last night in 025! He and his "sidekick" Sgt "Scared of my own shadow" arrived on the scene of a fire "10-1" near North/Cicero where a tax paying citizen was apparently battered in a "nightclub" / bar and the offender(s) returned to the bar and locked the door. So..... what does wonder boy do next??? He has the fire dept make a forced entry to the bar/nightclub by prying the accordion gate off the front of the bar and sledgehammering the door open, breaking glass etc... and lo and behold when they make entry to the bar/nightclub..... there is not a soul inside!! LOL The firemen were fucking super pissed off and the officers on the scene had a good chuckle. The disappearing sidekick Sgt was nowhere to be seen when all of this went down but an anonymous source did say he was seen lighting prayer candles and holding a rosary that nothing would happen that he would ever have to make a decision on or be involved in... he was also seen downing an entire bottle of Tums on the scene. Well, Thank God 3rd watch is getting the Super Sergeant!! Have fun kids.
What is it going to take to hire more officers this is horrible hope the officer is ok like they said unless its a10-1 or your family take your time not hiring any po's shows they could care less about us as far as the south side let them kill each other when they r done shooting then go in and call for ambulance I wish my neighborhood had that kind of police presence.the tax payers have no police because they send them to protect the savages it makes me sick 1 year to go I feel bad for all the officers out there with the savages happy new year!
Get well officer, sorry to say this, but it doesn't pay to race to the scene. Only for 10-1's. Until the city hires additional officers, citizens will have to wait just a little longer for service.
Then don't say it. Wish him well and forget the lecture. I'm sure he doesn't need an, I told you so.... Get well Officer, and my prayers are with you.

Is the tribune finally growing a backbone?
I love the idiots with the lectures. No one has the right to tell another police officer how he or she should do their jobs. If you choose not to be aggressive and go in "hot" to that in progress call, that's your decision. If someone who's more aggressive chooses to go lights and siren to an in progress call, so be it. We've all been around the block a time or two and everyone has their opinion of how police work should be done.
Lets just thank the big man upstairs that this officer will be ok!
Ummm, actually te Prius has among the very highest safty ratings.

Um not when the fuel cells get compromised.
Isn't that the Allstate Mr Mayhem man standing on the porch of picture #2?
Best wishes for a complete recovery officer, when it is warm out of course.

Well that's a mistake in itself, for thinking that you should ever engage in a pursuit in this city. Do not do it. Call it in, get the plate number and back off. Arrive alive.

Sgt. S.M. is a dick, an arrogant prick, an asshole, a snake, a sneaky bastard and many other adjectives (but you get the picture) I can't think of right now. 1st watch is so happy to see him go. 1st watch is going to have a little party to see his ass go. He is also reviled by his fellow sgt's. 3rd watch in 025 I feel sorry for you. This sgt. has initiated more cr numbers on officers than all other sgt. across all three different watches combined. If a citizen complains "the officer didn't give me a poleeece report" then he will believe them over you. End of discussion. If a citizen complains on you for anything. He believes them over you. End of discussion. On purpose he also creates division and infighting among the watch. His signature move is to call a fellow p.o. or talk to him and say "hey so and so is talking about you" or "I heard that this group of officers said this about you to Platt". At roll call he insulted the entire watch one time. At roll call recently he told everyone how the big guy who does tvb's all day was not interested in backing up his fellow officers. Because of him a bunch of my coworkers got pissed at me and then we all saw that the common thread among our infighting was guess who? Yes sgt. S.M.and thank God I don't need to deal with him anymore. He does that shit a lot. Plus he is proud of arresting a sgt. and a p.o. in summer of 2012 at Grand and Neva. He was actually bragging about it. While in the station he was smiling and being funny on arresting a fellow sgt. and his brother who is a p.o. 025 3rd watch pick your poison Sgt. C.H. or Sgt. S.M.
Bonus question: Who can get themselves kicked out out of the Marine Unit and the Helicopter Unit? If you said sgt. S.M. then you are 100% right. How big of an asshole do you have to be to get kicked out of those two units? Oh and remember this, no matter what, sgt. S.M. is always right. 3rd watch officers remember that!

true say...for a traffic violator or PSMV, sure its best to back off, but a ten one offender, i'd rather take the risk. Also in the hopes the favor would be returned.
Um not when the fuel cells get compromised.

Ummm It doesn't have fuel cells. It has batteries. Isn't NASA looking for you?
A stand up Sgt would make that parking lot damage...ahhh the good ole days

I always hustle to a call for assistance. That is not like a pursuit, you are no good as an assist if you need help yourself after totaling out the squad, that means less officers to help with the 10-1. Hustle but don't kill yourself.
Speedy recovery...hope you heal completely
thank goodness nobody got hurt...get well officer. now the bashing there aint no fucking need to drive that excessive to loose control of a squad for a bullshit call that most likely ended up to be a 19bullshit!!! if it aint the police radioing a 10-1 its FUCKING BULLSIT!!!!!!!!
come on office???? pursuit to a call??? im sure you'll take it a few notches down after that fender bender......
a sergt. lost his life a few years ago responding to a bullshit call such as that....its not worth driving where you cant control a vehicle, people get hurt and killed that way besides what good are you doing if you cant get there safely....lesson learned kid...if it aint the PO-PO calling its nothing more but BS!
get well and SLOW DOWN!!!!!!!!!!!!!
we all know what the investigation of the accident is gonna reveal....office your accident is ruled ...preventable. the board....We sentence you to traffic safety school for 21 days.....lol
the need to get to a job does not out way getting there safely!
