Most Dangerous Street?
You'd think it was in 011 right? The most dangerous beat for a few years now has been 1133 or 1134. The Sun Times did a big story on it a few years back. The District itself sits on 1134's beat, so that would be amusing that even a two-story police station housing four-hundred cops can't deter homicides, but we're wondering if there's an even more dangerous road in Chicago far away from the west side:
- An Elmwood Park man ambushed a fellow chef in the kitchen of a Portage Park restaurant during the dinner rush Sunday, fatally stabbing him with a 9-inch fillet knife for several minutes as he fended off coworkers trying to stop him with cutting boards and a chair, prosecutors say.
Jesus Martinez, 37, was charged Wednesday with first-degree murder in the murder of 35-year-old Cory Neill, who both worked as chefs at the Foundation Tavern and Grille, 5007 W. Irving Park Rd., according to Cook County prosecutors.
Irving Park Road seems to be attracting more than its share of homicides this year. Just about every single homicide in 016 has happened on Irving, including the five dead in a mass murder, the bank robbery that ended with a cop shot, another bar fight/homicide in front of a bar.
Someone ought to do something.

Seat Belt Missions....there, problem solved!
The baby boomers ruined a once great area and district. Thanks to theirs give me greedy selfish attitudes another loss is chalked up to that dead Beat Generation.
“Cook” county.
Portage Park has gone to shit, along with Old Irving Park.
Prime example how shit can jump off no matter where you go or what time. Carry and carry an extra mag. If for no other reason, you can’t take the bad guy out, then to keep the asshole away from you and/or your campion/family. Restaurants, stores, hospital, Walmart’s, gas stations, shopping for food, etc, there are no safe places anymore. There was a time the police off-duty out alone or with family just had to worry about a bad guy trying to rob us, then came the terrorists with firearms or butcher knives, and now we have carjackings with a gun and wackos and domestics wanting to kill everyone cuz they were fired or dumped by the SO. Crazy world now. Better to carry and not have to use it, then to need it and not have it.
1634 is quickly becoming hoodlike.
o/t.. Chicago has 2nd highest property tax in America, Chicago home prices up 1% in last year, vs.4.9% rest of USA .Great article on crains com..the next Illinois crisis
Adjoining Beats 1133 and 1134 are bounded by Jackson Blvd. to Roosevelt Rd. and Springfield Ave. to Sacramento Blvd. The beats are split by Homan Ave.
From personal experience, I disagree. I believe the most violent and deadly part of Chicago is West Garfield Park between the Ike and Lake St. and Hamlin/Independence Blvds. to Cicero Ave. This area centers on the intersection of Pulaski Rd. and Madison St. in the 1110 sector.
Nope it’s 1112
Fighting back:
CPD lieutenant claims promotion discrimination over race, Van Dyke comments: suit

Now file lawsuits against Eddie and the cruisers for being passed up by the lying lieutenants cheater scheme, we have real collusion here democrats impeach the exempts!
BS, the jungle in Roger’s Prk way more dangerous. That be why there’s a police car sitting on Howard all night. Prevention for some, babysitting for others.
016 is at 11 homicides this year. a 550 percent increase
Just Austin migrating North. Won't be long before Belmont Cragin makes the Hay Jackals most violent list with its own listing rather then being grouped in other category. Lived in Austin during the 60-70 white flight and watched a great area go to hell when the racial demographics changed. It only took a few years before you couldn't drive thru without feeling unsafe. Anyone who thinks that Section 8 housing in in area is a good idea has absolutely no common sense. Arena I am talking about you.
Should be renamed to Irving Park Street that should do it...
"“Obviously, the man didn’t deserve it. He was taken just because someone was a little bit irritated at work, and that’s unfair,” Koempel said."
A "little bit irritated"? Damn, I'd say!
Could Senor Martinez be one of our proud immigrants Mayor BugEyes is always crowing about?
Now, kees me you fool!!!!
Groot doesn’t allow good neighborhoods to have a legit amount of police officers patrolling them. God help 016 and 017. It would be nice to have some rapids, 06, a wagon and 10-4 units but no, good people aren’t allowed police service in groots eyes. Send all the cops to 011 and 006 as usual.
God help this City
Irving lark rd is the new front line battleground. Used to be Fullerton ; then Belmont ..now Irving
Sounds like all those coppers who bid to 016 over the last couple of years may have brought the curse of the Indian burial ground up north.
Gee, if only one of the other kitchen employees was a concealed carry holder he or she could’ve stopped this. Oh wait, guns are bad and I’m sure there’s a sign on the door saying no guns allowed....... because guns are the problem. Silly me. What was I thinking? Carry on.
What's up with the latest onslaught of comments directed
at Baby Boomers? They received NO national news as
they entered into the workforce with sky high interest rates
rendering home purchases null and void. They all got 2nd
and 3rd jobs just to survive the rampamt inflation.
No bitching, just working. They also didn't need a National
Father Figure like Dave Ramsey to nurture them and point
the way. No brainer. No money = Work More Jobs.
Problem solved.
The most dangerous place in Chicago is between a democrat and a TV camera telling us how much they love the police and how much they are doing to make the police dept. a better orginzation!
Commander of 016 launched by the 1st Period.Chuckles Beck doing the deed.550 Per cent increase in Homicides is tough to hide.

Twenty years ago beat 1112 was the busiest beat in the country. It is still shit, but not as bad as it once was. Beats 1132 and 33 have picked up the slack.

I wonder why they are building 1.5 million dollar homes in that shit hole Old Irving Park?
Portage Park and Old Irving have been crap for some time now. Go to Addison and Laramie or Addison and Pulaski and take a good look around. Garbage!
Could you please tell me how Chicago acquired juneway jungle.east Rodgers is nothing but a bunch of West side and Englewood transplants moving on up.
Aside from the Irving Park thing - that Foundation Grill murder is absolutely bizarre - he thought the guy raped his daughter? Wow. Whats up with that?
025 is busting at the seams.
They could redraw District boundaries southward to level the crime infestation fields, something a Census gerrymandering might include when Wards are redrawn. One or the other, 016 or 025 could be written off the map entirely.
What’s the ratio of innie murders to outies murders in 016 so far? I think there’s some wiggle room for argument.
It was always a matter of time that Irving’s State Highway 19 in 016 had to answer to 011’s Roosevelt’s Road.
I can remember when westerly arteries North, Grand, Fullerton Aves started to turn, then Diversey, Belmont, Addison.
Tolerant and welcoming, Democrats spreading the blight on thoroughfare at a time.
Section8Arena’s contribution to Portage Park: courtesy exchanges, dollar stores and shirt laundry macks.
There was also the homicide on Irving and narragansett back in September...
I’ve been saying for years,
lose Irving Park And we lose the north side.
I hear they have killer food.

Don't forget a Cato spot light mission!
that is because a certain element has now moved as far as Irving Park Road. Used to be Fullerton as the line of Death
016 is a hell hole. I remember all the 016 people saying how great it was now they are begging to lift residency. 550K for a Georgian. No thanks.
016 is at 11 homicides this year. a 550 percent increase
Time to dump the Commander.
You also had the drive by at Irving and Narragansitt. 11 murders since Oct 1st I believe. Not many Commanders would survive that.
016 is at 11 homicides this year. a 550 percent increase
Commander doesn't think so.
shit can happen anywhere, and its spreading through 016. hell last two police shot and killed in the line of duty happened on days in 001..

Crystal meth will do that to you, it's no problem, don't worry about it...
Not to worried about 016. Retirement is great, neighborhood fine A few murders that have nothing to do with the neighborhood. Some good kills 5 people in his apartment building while they were eating dinner and I believe an OD officer witnessed it and two chefs fighting in a restaurant don’t mean the area has gone bad. Edison Park, Wildwood , Sauganash, Jefferson park are still fine
We'll push the good part of 16 to foster now ..we cant lose that front line...
Latino gangbangers moved to Portage Park that used to be mostly Polish and Irish.
Agreed. EP & WIldwood are still the safest hoods.
No police in 016/017. Beat cars routinely unmanned for entire tour on 1st watch. The place is wide open like a candyland for shitheads. Look at the theft and burglary numbers. Wake up in the morning in your castle with the 8,000.00 dollar a year property tax hit and your catalytic converter is gone or your car is sitting on blocks minus all 4 tires. Garage burglaries, atm burglaries, auto thefts............ etc...
