Nice Bar Scene Rahm
- Hundreds of people spilled into the street and broke into fights outside of a River North bar early Saturday, according to witnesses and police.
More than a dozen Chicago police officers flocked to 149 W. Kinzie St. at the Old Crow Smokehouse bar on the Near North Side around 1 a.m. to try to disperse the unruly crowd that spread across the block near Kinzie and LaSalle Street.
Patrons of Old Crow Smokehouse said some customers grew rowdy in the bar, and people began fighting, until police officers flooded the establishment.
A dozen officers are now considered a "flood" to quell a riot of "hundreds."
If only there was enough manpower to have a citywide response unit.
Who are we kidding - they'd all be ducking at 1230.

Put me in, coach
Citywide 10-1 s at kabooms and the convent. Now, those were a couple doozies.
Too bad it wasn't summer. In below zero weather. Nice!
hundreds?: is the Fire Dept. cool with that
hundreds?: rolling in the dough, but too cheap
to hire security
hundreds?: how many more before it's declared
a nuisance bar
hundreds? get the healt dept. over there and
culture everything, especially the ice machines.
something has to be wrong with that type of volume
Rahm is an ugly human being with a disgusting soul and he smells like tonsil stones.
Normally, Old Crow is a "country" bar. However, on the night in question it seems that a "hip-hop promoter" decided to have a little party, with bottle service of course. Hip-Hop draws a certain type of crowd, (most of you know what I mean). Anyway, there were problems all night long, but when you pay $500 for a bottle of "Henny" you don't want anyone telling you that you can't finish the bottle because a few of your "friends" fucked it up for everybody. Funny thing is several fights started AFTER the police arrived, further proving that this segment of society doesn't give a shit about the police. Just remember boys and girls there are cameras everywhere. Stay safe.
0030 you mean.
That's why it's called the thin blue line,it's based on compliance.
There are not enough of us, to protect you, from them.....and they know it.
You better arm up.
Back in the day a couple assholes would had went to the hospital or the shithousea d the hospital... but get a clouted command staff and all you get is bullshit
Candy may be dandy, and liquor may be quicker, but, dumbass can always be relied upon to spoil a lovely evening.......
"More than a dozen Chicago Police Officers flocked to 149 W. Kinzie" Did the police fly in, in a chevron formation like a flock of geese? How about, the police responded to 149 W. Kinzie. Is this what Northwestern's Medill School of Journalism is producing?
The Liquor Commission is licking its chops waiting for this one.
Vote Republican!
I get the clever journalism. They "flocked" to the "Old Crow". How cute. Now go investigate some politician funster.
Amish fighting?
Hopefully the responding officers did not put hands on anyone. Are they on call back yet?
CAN WE ALL JUST GET ALONG , STAY FETAL MY FRIENDS , When you DON'T have enough man Power to go in YOU DON'T , Plain and simple , FUCK RAHM and the BRASS , its your Ass going in , not there's , They already know this , But will still put you in HARMS WAY ,, Let it be known that the Brass sticks by Rahms ASS Real Close , Not Ours. Only The new bees don't know this yet , But will sooner or Later MAYBE
Who cares? Just remember the other 11 cams on scene, say as little as possible, leave ASAP, code.
Tonsil stones! Poor Rahm ain't getting enough water.
Maybe he'll switch to McDonald's water so he don't get
no poison.
How come he don't get no psychological evaluations
despite his wacky behavior?
This basket case "must have lost his mind when he lost
his job" in D.C.
>>>>> 'The country venue can be described as the ultimate blend of home cookin and a lively saloon.' <<<<<
Ah-ha! There you have it, it's a 'Lively Saloon'.
Some folks take things waaaaaay to literal today and the yuppies & snowflake millennials 'prolly' thought they were back in 1878 and figured every Saloon needed a good old fashioned 'cowboy brawl' before the night was over. (LOL)
btw: I was told growing up that after Prohibition was repealed, one of the new laws/rules/reg's was all bars / 'liquor establishments', were barred from using the word, 'Saloon'. They had to use 'Tavern', Tavern being more respectable than 'Saloon'. But hey, this is Chicago, who cares about silly 'old' laws.
With the use of the word “flock”, it sounded like an old time watch party, this being change day and all.
How many officers are in a flock and does that include the head chickenshit too?
We’re they “community” members?
Why do have VRI for the lakefront when it’s -10°?
I want to thank the liberal democRATic snowflakes for bringing the south and west side ghetto shitshow to the north side. This is another example of the shitcago values that have turned this city into a toilet bowl.
Sounds like Brothers Palace on every weekend.
The Allure Bar,January 2005 in 018..Bouncer wont let Shit head in, He goes to his car gets a gun shots and kill's 3 bouncers at the door.Hip Hip Crowd's just wanna have fun.In 2005 from Jan-Mar 018 had 8 Homicides on 1st watch,Hip Hop..
You think someone would have seen the dark storm clouds gathering. The more clouds that gather, the greater potential for a Bombogenesis category-1 storm is on the horizon.
Shut the doors of the club, leave them in the sub zero weather fighting or whatever. In a short time, we win.
one riot, one ranger!
If it is said the officers flocked to the scene, can it be said the usual suspects acted like a pack of wild hyenas?
Hope everyone took their time getting there. Stop for a hot cup of coffee, bathroom break, park a little distance away, (protect that taxpayer paid for vehicle & equipment, be sure to leave a guard), wait til everyone is there, make a plan, then walk in and see if anyone needs an ambulance.J
Stay safe Officers, your family waiting at home is more important.
J.J.
I thought that was a pretty safe neighborhood?
Hope they all stood back and observed and videoed the event. Let tempest each other on a pulp. Ask nicely for everyone to jut calm down.
Will be nice when Rahm has driven all the Amish out of city. Rahm, keep up the good work make the city safe again.
can I get another number for a positive community interaction squad

Good point.
Still, it's better than listening to the now defunct TRU/MSF Hairgels and current 3 Year Wonders that populate every tactical team regale anyone within earshot with 'war stories' of 'wolfpacking' into 'dope tips' to grab 'shorties' with 'jabs'.
< Barf! >
Thug night rears it's ugly head at old crow this time. Cash is king. These greedy bars don't care who they cater to until someone is shot and killed inside the bar or out front and then they're surprised when the city shuts them down. A bar overcrowded with assholes and not enough security to keep things under control equals the shitshow that occurred Saturday morning. The moment you start allowing there to be thug night at your bar is when things quickly statt going downhill and you get shut down. It's happened time and time again.

I knew there was more to the story that the “media” wasn’t reporting. The truth is, well, racist.
Serious listening problems.
CO’PRA sent out a communitay complaining witness response team for video.
Yes in deed, back in the day.
There never was a bar fight that wasn’t dispatched in short order with a minimum dozen in the wagon, including the lingering onlookers.
Hope the taxpayers and tourists are satisfied with Sanctuary City so far.
Thought this was basically a restaurant.
Licensing needs to be amended to reflect social media frenzies.
If they’re going after hours hip-hop, they’ll need a 6 a.m. license for starters.
Guaranteed there’s a going to be a Cat-5 when the posse starts to arrive an hour before closing with m’own juice.
Never hear of bar fights in 011, 015, 002-007.
Another fat envelope dropped off at Brendon’s Office of Tolerance, No Law and No Order, everything’s cool now.
So I axe, Old Crow...was it worth it?
So long as there’s no Tough Cookie™ the feral urban mayhem will continue.
Hands off. Please stand by.
Ironically, one of the major partners of this establishment is an FBI agent
It's all funny now in that over 500 attending a frat get together/anniversary just cant seem to get alongf for a four hour party. The shocker is no gun fire or stabbings.. Glad all of the men and women from 018, CHA and 001 were not injured in the chaotic scene. they handled the massive crowd of assholes in just about an hour. Commendations for alll hahaha
Ducks were at 0100, on the weekends! Jajajajaja
The old “hip hop” crowd at it again, can’t take them anywhere nice
Flocked? You mean, they didn't sashay? Not even gallavanting?
There's a reason why Medill grads are referred to as "Medilldos" - they spread into every news organization and it's the key to "success" in journalism. Meanwhile if you went to a normal journalism school and learned to write well and not be part of the story, you're not going to have a career in journalism.
Don’t know why there were not more officers available. If any district needs officers on midnights it’s 018 , especially on weekends. Tact units,? Entertainment cars
Were they really fighting? Kung fu fighting or was it I'll scratch your eyes out.
I remember the E2 Nightclub disaster 22 dead there and that was a panic at the one exit stairway. We didn't flock to that place we stormed the scene.

It's not a "flock of crows", properly it is a "murder of crows".
Hip hop = "disrespecting" = guaranteed violence
Man, and I thought Bob's Country Bunker had a rough crowd. I betting this place doesn't have chicken wire up. They definitely weren't playing country and western music that night. THAT AIN'T NO HANK WILLIAMS SONG?!

i remember talking to the m/1 manager/owner the next day. he said i quote" I knew something was gonna happen when these guys were arguing and they stopped on there own. my people never stop on their own, they will argue and argue until there is a fight or someone separates them."
More gang bangers caused this as rahm needs to pander to the ghetto to get reelected.Rahmk was pandering with Jason ERvin, friend of drug dealers again today on tv. Rahm must be defeated.
It's not the guns it's Hip Hop! Finally confirmed.
Hey ch 2, 5, 7, 9, why don't you show a body cam video of the scene of our peoples and show everyone one the news of what's out there one the streets that the police have to deal with. For all those who were out on the street at 1am I hope they didn't over sleep for church in the morning.

Are you jealous cause you only have 3 years on and can't get it? By now you should have made enough money to move out of your mom's house and got an apartment with heat. Best wishes from the lake front. PS...Buy gloves and some long johns with your uniform allowance.
Congrats First Deputy Superintendent Tony Riccio. Just wait till you see the new group of commanders and you’ll be out the door like Kev.
God Bless You CPD! You truly are with a screwed up job with prayers needed for 2018! I think I will retire being in jail! At least I can stay warm, watch TV, watch the inmates with often boring/humorous fight along with the best of all....I be clocking seem dollars well over 110,000!!!! Overtime, did someone say "overtime?" I pray for you CPD guys and gals! The game will be watched tomorrow between Alabama and Georgia too. You can always call in for an update while you are freezing your balls and fur burgers off driving slippery and shittery streets. Y'all job is very shitttty! Sorry

HAHAHA listen kid when you have some T.O.J. you'll get some VRI. I was just there and got ppppppaid for drinking coffee at Starbucks. $$$ for helping to bring down crime almost 26%. At least that's what WGN just reported. Before you know it I'll be in Florida as you start getting that VRI LOL T.O.J. kid. Its what you get after you pay your dues so stop hating. TOJ- Time on the Job HAHAHA
"Flocked" is a great indication that the story was written by some overseas contract copywriter... Probably in India. That's the style of English they use...
Fibune and Slum Times could care less, so long as it gets them eyeballs or sells their rags...
Nothing to see here folks...move along.

Can Commander Wheezie be too far off?
She couldn’t run a one block paper route but that seems to be the direction this department is heading.
God Bless You CPD! I be clocking seem dollars watching the game tonight between Alabama and Georgia. I will be warm too and eating some Portillos too. What better way to start my six figure 2018 routine. Stay warm and safe. Jail isn't so bad afterall! You guys can always call the jail for score updates because your phone calls to your shitty duty stations will be monitored and you risk being snitched on by a trick! I will even put my Portillos to the receiver so you can smellhear the taste before I smash it while clocking deez dollars and making my money!

That could have occurred anywhere. Rednecks down here in the South do the same shit. Doorman/security at that club should have been ready for 'retribution.' In that kind of job, there have to be guns at the ready which work for the management as well. Can't hire police, hire armed plainclothes security. It pays to have a plan, always.

Probably because the Department does not release those body cam videos unless forced to do so like the JVD video.
The daily two dead tree media outlets have no staff photographers anymore. The only photos they print is what politicians, police or citizens provide. The TV stations rely a lot on cell phone videos from citizens. Does the media pay for any of these?
Brother SCC - I been gone off the job a wee bit. I thought VRI/Special employment still pulls out of 54 West Hubbard Street or the Kraft Building Navy Pier across from ButterNut Candy Mfg !
I remember 1978, getting my Physical for the job on Hubbard, The first time in the morning I was told I had a Heart Murmur by Doctor Finks and they threw my ass out the door, 4 hours later and a $150.00 short, I walked in and Dr. Ross now touched my chest and said you are cured and will be hired next week.
Anyway, don't the copper' that work special on Hubbard work to 0400 on weekends ?
Love all you fine people here on the only TRUE news source in Illinois. SCC - Give us 30 more years...Please. Hope I am alive to see the CPD rise from the ashes. You guys stay alert and keep that F U attitude to the alleged brass and the hood rats.
Stay warm and hit the shows when working VRI after roll call on Hubbard in the Loop. The Chicago and Michael Todd Movie house on Clark has the balcony open for us special employment guys. Some poor copper' found the house so homie they sleep to the 3 rd watch and got paid for working a double, We were over worked from laughing till we pissed our pants.
