Again with the Lakefront

  • A gang-related shootout on the lakefront left Lakeview golfers stunned, but nobody injured Sunday morning at the Sydney Marovitz Golf Course parking lot, according to witness reports and police sources.

    No one is in custody.

    Gunfire between rival gang members erupted around 8:10 a.m. apparently after one man approached another and asked for his affiliation.

    Multiple witnesses reported that one man fired a shotgun and the other fired a handgun in the conflict which unfolded at the east end of the parking lot. Shell casings were recovered at the scene.

    A policeman on scene stated that “there was definitely a handgun and a shotgun and they fired back and forth.”
Some stops were made later, but guess what?
  • About 30 minutes after the gunfire, golfers summoned police to the course after seeing two men who were in the area of the shooting ducking in and out of brush Marovitz’s east fence line.

    A carload of men was stopped nearby, but the city’s link to a national crime database was offline, and officers could not verify the occupants’ identities, gang affiliations, or warrant information, according to an officer.
The LEADS system has been down for two or more days now, rendering the entire Department incapable of running plates, verifying licenses, checking names. And no word on when it will be back.

Welcome to section 8, scattered site housing. These bad guys now live all over the city in those vile CHA owned 3 flats and larger buildings. Hey, why should I go to Rainbow beach when Montrose is just a couple of miles away?

These cretins are subsidized by the government so they only need to pitch enough dope or rob a few people as their basic needs are nearly met by our government.

How much energy for mischief would you have if you slept 9 or 10 hours per day and only had to work part time? And don't forget it it democrats, YOU OWE THEM.

All they talk about is partying and where to go to so that they can accomplish that goal. Both parties fight among themselves on a regular basis. This is why I carry all the time on the lakefront.

When working for a major carrier and data provider if we had a system down for TWO MINUTES there was hell to pay and because of team pride and overall competence in our work that only happened once on my watch and it was more like about 30 seconds. What is going on here. System hardware and software continues to become more reliable every year. By the way, this was a LEO system for that beer town to the north and it was in the 80's.

Section 8 scattered housing is the death of crime free proud communities. Similar to dropping a bomb or biological weapon (which in a way it is.) The city I live does this and in nice treed middle class residential areas it's easy to pick out the Section 8. Grass is 5 feet high, hooptie parked on the lawn, doors hanging open, no window coverings except nailed up sheets, trash all over and the best for last! Sharp increase in crime. Theft of anything not nailed down or protected, screaming domestic fights, loud parties and the police visiting at least once a week, feral children running loose and you get the idea. Generally this lasts anywhere from 6 to 9 months before they are forceably removed and then another 6 months of peace while the asshole who owns the property has to fix it back to living conditions which generally entails a dumpster full of wreckage such as most of the kicked in doors, cabinets which have been torn off walls, broken toilets and sinks and carpeting that should be declared a Super Fund Clean Up Site. Yes, just like us. When are the people going to come the their collective sense and demand an end to this nonsense? Oh, one more thing! Why do these people all own Pitt Bulls which are totally neglected mistreated and a terror to neighbors? Guess that was rhetorical.

Since you're the real police with extensive knowledge and experience, perhaps you can stand there instead and provide your expertise.
Better yet, you should be Superintendent. You seem to have all the answers the department desperately needs.

The only report of any crime on WGN-9 was the 606 trail robberies. They won't give a description, only the police have a general description of the offenders. One mutt pulls a gun after knocking the bike rider off his/her bike and the other mutt, beats the victim and takes whatever valuables they can get. I'll take a leap of faith here, that the offenders are the usual suspects. There's some kind of award being offered and a possibility the camera's on the trail may have photos of the offenders. Knowing how fucked up this city is, I'm betting the camera's don't work and these mutts will continue on their crime spree. I know at least three retired coppers who ride their bikes on that trail, hope these shitheads run into one of these guys, they were aggressive coppers during their time on the CPD. I've asked one of them last week, why are you still here in this shit hole, he said he likes the restaurants and night life. I guess whatever floats your boat, but I'm leaving when the time comes.

No, two wrongs do not make a right. No, I am not advocating it either. I am pointing out that if you all are going to blanket target everyone, well, yer included in that everyone and everyone is going to be targeted then you all WILL be included too, even if it takes other people to deploy tech to make it so.

I don't think yall know how dangerous it is to turn tech on the nerds who come up with it in the first place. They tend to get butthurt more than the normal folk and they lash out faster too.

Sorry, most field stops and random traffic stops, in fact most traffic stops are being phased out and are gone for at least a generation. In case you missed the Sun-Times editorial a few days ago from Steve Chapman, he called for the end of most police traffic stops. He said they are causing a danger to citizens and to police officers. he cited the gang banger who was in the back seat of a car and waived a handgun before the officers shot him. Chapman believes traffic cameras are all that is needed. So, all beat cars should now be in the station and only come out when someone calls. The days of pro active policing are dead. The liberals want it that way. Give them what they want. May God have mercy on everyone else

What's going in Mass Trans Sgt V spars a 30 yr vet for not notifying her immediately that he was on a arrest, then spars people for eating lunch 1 mile away from there assigned Cta bus route, morale is at its worse, no one wants to work her shift, even for triple time!

She's a do nothing on a power trip! Quick to say she worked but never did! People like her are the problem with the job

What is wrong? Are you expected to work and be accountable?

Mass Transit is a hiding spot for the special people; and you need some strong connections to get in.

"The LEADS system has been down for two or more days now, rendering the entire Department incapable of running plates, verifying licenses, checking names. And no word on when it will be back."

Coincidence or conspiracy? You decide. And...

"Bangers out at 8am?!"

...yeah, meth will do that for ya.

Not at Wavelend! what ever happened to "It only happens on the South side!" or "Not in this neighborhood"?

on another note any updates on the White/Latino 18 yo shot at The Target parking on Roosevelt & Clark. News only mention it in the morning and then never again. Here's the link http://chicago.cbslocal.com/2017/07/18/south-loop-target-shooting/

Local guy in video is moving out ASAP! That area is dangerous even wholefoods is full of criminal riff raff.

No surprise here..she did the same thing to 5th watch special to the point that only 1 team was showing up. And she s friends with the commander, who is also over her head.And now the unit is getting filled with her secret do nothing friends. HEy FOP, how about checking how shes getting all these P.O s in by detail instead of opening up BIDS.People are starting to bail the unit..

Reminds me of a murder scene. We walk in and the husband is standing over his dead wife who has her head split open. He is holding a bloody nine iron and classic blood splatter patterns on walls and ceiling.
I said how many times did you hit her?
He stares blankly and says I don't know, nine...ten...but put me down for a six.

Sounds like that stop was a 19 Paul but I hope they did ISR's on each and every person in that "carload".

Let's take cops off the street for an hour or so filling out bullshit while gangbangers are actively engaging each other in gun battles.

Ask F.O.P., the reason we have 30 year vets hanging around is due to health care, some officers have only 20 years but are 55, receive 100 health care, others have 33 years but are 53 and are penalized because of age discrimination. Don't cry on the blog, yell at your unit rep. Everyone wants to retire.

Can someone tell me why the detail unit has DB's standing in level III vests, ballistic helmets, and have rifles slung over their shoulder on the corner at Wrigley? These guys are basically armed traffic aides who haven't worked a day in their life. What could go wrong?????


Smoking mirrors. They are not properly trained. Zero training except for the Dept rifle course. Typical CPD all show and no go. Blame the Lt who actually thinks he knows what he's doing because he read an article or saw it on the news. Just another lawsuit waiting to happen.

Have things changed with the contract? I was under the impression that details were for a maxi y'all of 90 days and then you were returned to your old unit unless an opening was announced. What's the sense of having bids or rules if management can detail po's anytime they want for as long as they want

I don't know...reads here like there is no shortage of do nothings already assigned to MT, and the sgt. is attempting to remind those assigned there of their duties/responsibilities. Morale is NEVER bad in specialized unit! Of course, if working conditions are so difficult now that you are being held accountable to eat lunch where you're assigned or to notify your sgt. that you're down on an actual arrest, there are always tons of beat cars waiting to be filled in each of the 22 remaining district stations.
Bet morale is suddenly on the upswing now!

Sgt. V will leave early from work at every opportunity possible. She once was carried SIF because her beloved pooch died. She is an evil ex public school teacher who will try to screw you at every opportunity. She will ask any other Sgt. to cover her check off so she can leave early. She cries when she cant skate off early and will try and get others in trouble if thet dont accommodate her. They tried to keep people who work Special in the dark about which watch she was working because nobody would work her watch or cancel. When nobody would show up for her watch she would just leave nice and early. If she only has a couple people show up, she begs the Tact. Sgt. to handle her check off so she can skate early. One of the biggest snakes in the grass to work in this Department.

The inside track on this is the healthcare will be completely gone as soon as the next contract is negotiated that the house on it we need to watch the pension that is extremely important Mike Shields is running for trustee on the Pension Board say what you want about him but at least he had a big mouth and spoke out for us he has my vote Kevin Graham you better along with Kenny Houser Mike Lappi and the rest watch their pension fund let us know in your monthly magazine your propaganda magazine about the progress on funding a Chicago police pension! If you screw this up you'll be thrown out of office quicker than anyone else you know like they did the Nazi style removal of Mike Shields what a pathetic way of doing things.

have a Lt. working midnights in Mass Transit, who is afraid to work the streets and stays in his office and dreams of ways to mess with patrolman. D.K. always worked midnights and hid from any job. Talks a big game being a 7th district ranger, if I recall he did nothing back then. Sounds like not a very nice place to work anymore.

The failure of LEADS is everywhere and shows just what a shit hole this state has become. When you upgrade a computerized system, you run the old one until the new one is installed and ready to go live. Sometimes you run them side by side but in this state you go off line to make the conversion. Idiots. Every time I see a politician in this state on the news that is my first thought, Idiots.
