Shots Fired at CPD
- Three men are in custody after shots were fired at police Wednesday during a traffic stop in South Shore on the South Side.
About 12:05 a.m., officers on patrol requested assistance in an attempt to make a traffic stop in the 6900 block of South Merrill Avenue, Chicago police said. An additional CPD squad car went to assist in the stop and while behind the vehicle, a black jeep, man from the jeep allegedly opened fire on the officers.
No officer was struck or injured, police said. The jeep then attempted to flee and crashed into a parked vehicle in the 2100 block of East 67th Street.
The passengers of the jeep, three adult males, attempted to run from the crash, but were all taken into custody, police said. Two weapons were found.
This on the heels of an extremely bad December for Law Enforcement nationwide. Stay alert ladies and gents.

This was the comment.....

Beware 006th District should the Grievance Queen EG actually land there from her cancelled detail in AC. She caused nothing but problems in our unit and headaches for the bosses all the way to the Deputy Chief. It took months to get her out because of all the grievances she filed. Didn’t want to be accused of retaliation and end up on her hit list. Watch what you say around her. She’s a backstabber and in it only for herself. She doesn’t care if she fucks things up for anyone else as long as she gets what she feels she deserves. 006 is her unit of assignment but I wouldn’t be surprised if she complains and cries victim to avoid actually going back to a working district. Bye bye EG and good riddance. Your days of messing things up for everyone else in your former unit are over. Sorry to 006 or wherever she lands but you have been warned. DO NOT TRUST HER!!!

I happen to know who EG is in the above comment. EG is a police officer. EG was standing up for herself and her fellow officers in the unit when she filed grievances because HER AND HER FELLOW OFFICERS CONTRACTUAL RIGHTS WERE BEING VIOLATED.
I know this all started over a year ago. The unit rep in her unit actually helped managment violate the officers rights because it benefited him. How you ask? Well for starters he allowed the unit to pick furloughs by watch even though it is a 4th watch unit. This benefited him because he was on afternoons (even though he got to work days all of the time) and therefore picked his furlough among officers with less seniority. Then when several officers had RDO’s cancelled ( some officers worked14+straight days) he told the officers because they are in a unit the 6th & 7th workday DOES NOT APPLY TO THEM. This too was incorrect. How do I know this? Well for starters I know EG and when she began to question what was going on she called me to ask because I’m the unit rep for my unit. I also told her she could have officers from her unit call me if they had questions because of how much misinformation they were being given. One guy who called me wound up receiving 4days of OT for the 6th and 7th workday. That added up to 18 hours of pay he was cheated out of..There were several other issues I helped EG with. There are several more rights that were being violated. I told her to file the grievances and as a unit rep I’m glad she did. There were many other things that were being done.....too many to list.
But what I want to end with is this:
If you had such a bone to pick with her why not just say it to her? Why post anonymously here? Either you are a supervisor and the grievances were causing you headaches because our contractual rights are an inconvenience to you, or you are a P.O. with no balls to tell a fellow officer they are doing something you don’t like.
Scc of topic but CBS had long expose on Sheriff Darts malfeasance. 90 million spent last year on inmate medical care. Most of it from inmates attacking other inmates and subsequent suits. One inmate attacked guards/inmates on 17 occasions. And the Sheriff kept placing him in general pop. Many other inmates causing riots on jail buses. Please dp a post on this rhe public has no clue how bad this Sheriff is. His hands off approach is putting officers lives in danger and would appreciate if you help het the word out again. Thanks

"Three adult males." At least they said the jeep was black.
Hit a parked car.
On top of all the other crimes revoke this dude's licence if he happens to have one.
Head on swivel! This is the result of Liberal Leftest Lawlessness that’s being promoted throughout our great country! It is NOT worth it anymore to do this absolutely hated profession. Your lives are not worth it for these pieces of shit! Find a new profession. I’m worth more than that-We all are! GTF Out!
Thanks to these LEOs for engaging this vehicle. It seems that an awful lot of shootings these days have involved a black Jeep. Was it this Jeep, or do members of "da community" just prefer black Jeeps now?
Off topic, so far I have to say I like this mike barz in 025. He making some good choices for the troops.
OT does the Merit announcement mean that no Merit hacks will be considered by Mayor for Superintendent job. If so she will have to bring in an outsider. LOL change is coming in a big way. Buckle up and get ready for some real change.
Have you heard that a certain triple merit lt from Area Central is suing the city to get another promotion!?!?
Even more disturbing, the officers didn’t return fire. I wasn’t there so I can’t knock and I won’t, but it makes you wonder. No time? Or too concerned about the repercussions? This place would rather have a funeral than a lawsuit which is absolutely ridiculous and wrong. The “training” is designed to make you have too many things in your head besides defending yourself and designed to override survival instinct. When I went to use of force, I left there thinking..... “scary”.
Will they get 10 tries before they get charged just like shoplifting or is it the number of shots taken? Hard to figure out the for sure because the law means nothing to those charged with filing charges.
Officers, your number one priority is to go home safely to your family.
And,in this despicable city a 2% yearly raise,not even enough to keep up with inflation is your reward.taking not giving starts the negotiations.this is shameful.the men and women on the streets deserve so much more.fuck these whining part time teachers.pro police civilian.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=7Nzy4DVF0sI the video of the incident.
Don’t worry, it’s not a felony to shoot at the police per Kim Foxx.
Just a negligent discharge of a firearm. I-bond, please.

Stay safe and be extra careful. These offenders have no fear and will fire at the police. Be safe and God Bless!

^^^Good one, how likely is he to have a valid license and insurance??
"Three adult males." At least they said the jeep was black.
LOL, thank you for that.
I still don't understand how Sheriff Dart has half the inmates as previous Sheriffs and he is having so many issues. 90 million from negligent suits and he places the same inmates on the transport buses. Does the Sheriff have a high risk transport unit?
"Three adult males" are all you need to say
That's newspaper code right there
Compared to the Pacific Ocean, the Lake is like a
backyard pool. And that's why Beck feels landlocked
and got claustrophobic in his first week here. Those
behind-the-ear Scopolamine patches help some but
you can't mix them with CBD. Funny, continued use
of CBD will eventually cause a hot pot piss.
And if they have 3000 actual inmates and are spending 90 million in healthcare related suits. That is 30,000 per inmate not including the 200 day it cost to house a inmate at the Cook County jail. From reading SCC the Sheriff is down several thousand deputy sheriffs. We may have figured out where the funding is going.
These assholes need to be dealt with severely like with a baseball bat to both hands so they can never ever fire a gun. I take stuff like this VERY PERSONAL.
Everyone needs to back each other up including you dogs that never ever did any work even before cameras. You too could be put in danger. Stay safe.

We have one of those (Sgt RU) in A/S.
Rotten days, months, years ahead for the police indeed.
Nationwide trend of violence and murder against police from ambush to traffic stops.
What do the feral have to lose?
An arrest is only an inconvenience, the thrill is the chase.
Restorative justice will always giving the lawless violent armed feral another night to operate.
Your CookCo States Attorneys Office is focused right now weed expungements not the violent armed assailants that Prickwrinkle’s CookCo Court releases on affordable or recognizance bonds.
KimFoxxxx, Prickwrinkle or JB Pigster have NO REGRETS for releasing repeat Violent Armed Offenders.
There will be no sympathy from GrootLoafer-COPA for consequences coming from any vehicle chase, regardless of circumstances.
What was the intent (traffic court, CTTV, ISR, etc.) of that attempt traffic stop?
Can’t say the community is approving so it must be the supervisory activity demands.
Stay Slumped.
What a “horribly” written article on the NBC news site. What kind of an education must one have to write or edit news reports today (3rd grade?)? Come on media have some pride in presenting the news in today’s world.
2 "young ladies" steal a car in Robbins and don't realize that it's a unmarked vehicle. The thing is it's a 2007 Chevy Impala?!! WTF.
Be careful what you wish for. There won't be anymore lists that make it into the 400's. In fact not even the 300's. The top 150-175 every 2 years. I'm sorry to say but a lot of good working policemen score in the 300-400's.

Out his clout, so many incidents now this drunken bullshit!! Sorry he’s not a copper just like the exempts wearing our uniform for Halloween!
Hope I'm not out of my lane here from the Indiana side. Our oldest son is a police officer for an agency in Porter county Indiana. He told me the other day that in 2019 he has had to pull his weapon more times than the 7 combined years he has been a police officer.
Any news on when they will spring Louis Hicks? He's been in jail long enough and I'm sure Father Faker has made arrangements for him to walk out that door soon.
Crimesha: We can't charge the case. We are much too busy righting past wrongs we have committed by expunging weed convictions with Evans and JB Pritzker..
"I own the Jussie Smollett case" Sorry Kimmy, You still have not been truthful or told the public exactly what you did in the case.
Dart: I agree. No charges. I have thousands of people on EM that we have no idea where they are. Besides, We are out of pizza.
OT so trying to understand why a web site listing Aldermanic votes is considered bullying. What happened to all the transparency the alder thieves keep harping on. Every vote taken should be on a public web site. Guess they are afraid of coming out of their smoke filled offices to let the public in on their dirty little secrets. Sun Times editorial board what the hell were you thinking labeling this as bullying. Guess the truth doesn't really matter to the editors of the Chicago Sun Times. No wonder they are on life support these days. Truth or fake news, seem to lean more to the fake news now.
OT:
In response to Beck’s decision, some aldermen have expressed concern that the move would lead to a reduction in minority leadership but Lightfoot sought to assuage those concerns.
“We’re never going to take any step back or retreat from diversity,” Lightfoot said. “We’re going to be monitoring the results of the tests and if we need to make some adjustments, we will.”
WTF. Why does it have to come down to race at all. If u can’t pass the test not matter what your race may be, u don’t get the promotion. Why do we have to adjust for black or brown people not being smart enough. It’s ridiculous. They cry to the mountain tops about being treated equally then when it comes to this they are basically saying they are not equal and not smart enough to make rank and need help. Well what the fuck.

Every unit has one, swat has a sgt hroma, who was brought over on a phone call, was deemed tactically incompetent, avoids training at all cost because he knows how terrible he is and doesn't want people to see. Hasnt completed the minimum required training to be on swat in years. Was named the #1 problem in swat by the team,spends all his time stabbing people in the back. Always bad mouthing everyone else to cover his incompetence and complete lack of management ability. Falsified every weapon quals for years because he can't shoot. Falsifys training logs so he can remain operational, but actually never trains. You do not want this guy on a hostage rescue, he will kill the hostage and most of the cops on scene. All of this while the blonde just nods his head. Beck! Help!

Scumtimes article
CPD lieutenant claims promotion discrimination over race, Van Dyke comments: suit
Lt. "OV" says in a lawsuit that the city passed over him for promotions because he is Latino and because of statements he made about the Van Dyke investigation.
Isn't this the same OV who was made Lieutenant Meritoriously?
Isn't this the same guy who reputedly committed as criminal sexual assault, reaching up under the skirt and fondling the genitalia of a female PO while at the OCD Christmas Party?
Isn't this the same guy against whom still another female officer filed a complaint with the EEOC for "Hostile Work Environment"?
Isn't this the same guy who at COMPSTAT, in order to impress the new Superintendent, revealed that he was in receipt of confidential information regarding a FEDERAL Wiretap, information that he was not supposed to know and then revealed same to the entire audience including civilians and the new SAC for ATF.
Isn't this the guy who went around snitching on fellow supervisors stating he believed that they didn't put in a full day's work; Later determined to be completely false information?
Isn't this the same guy who, in 2011, was chosen to be assigned to the Border Intelligence Fusion Section (BIFS) at the El Paso Intelligence Center (EPIC), only to be denied one week prior to the start date because he couldn't pass the background check?
Well, by previous standards, isn't this guy well qualified to be promoted to commander!

pot expungements , why ? most of the cases would be illegal after 1-1-2020
next 1 black , 1 brown is señor alderman said cpd needs merit promotions or there will not be enough brown and black supervisors
are they saying asians ,caucasians , female blacks are superior to brown and black men ?
get rid of these unqualified alderman , to many , call 311 for good service , most cannot complete a sentence without mmm, huh, dumb as a box of rocks , where are the educated people in the ward ?
Ponygate: That's what L.A. called it.

Spot On.
It's always about race in Shitcago. Race, Race and Race. That's the engine that drives Shitty City. The race pimps, hustlers, revrunds, media, Democrats, Socialist, reformers, Kimmy Foxxxx & courts. All slick as shit. All keeping the status quo. Evan the Ohio imp is up to her Big Boy pants in the business of race exploitation. All under the banner of reform.
The chaos is great cover for the gunners, dopers, robbers, carjackers, crooked politicians and hacks. More slick schemes like get out of jail, low/no bonds/I Bonds, James Bonds and the like. Casino's, free dope, free breakfasts/lunches, free hats/coats,free this, free that, its for the kids, and gotta keep the clout going with merit promotions. The oil for the Machine Hacks to control the police dept and keep the community happy and voting the right way. Beck says no to merit promotions, the Imp says yes to oral interviews to provide cover and ensure the right corruptible and incompetent people get in.
The old Merit Promotions under the guise of oral interviews. You know like Johnson's Johnson fiasco. He is an excellent example of Merit/Clout at it worst throughout his career. Groot took it in the shorts by hyping the great Eddy Johnson as he goes into retirement squeaky clean. Hennessy Ed sure had his way by embarrassing the buffoon from Shitty Hall. She's a fool that got fooled by Special Ed.
Beck, nice try with No Merit promotions but Groot slyly aides and abets the routine corrosive nature and culture of corruption in Shitty City. Its all about race. Do the best you can for the dept. and get out of here before corruption stains your legacy. Let the new stooge come in straighten things out (wink, wink). This is a dangerous city in many ways. Remember that everything in this shitty is on the legit: including Shitty Hall. Its the Chicago Way.
You can't always automatically fire back toward hostile fire.
We are held to a higher standard then the average thug who fires into a crowd, down a block, into a car etc.
The Police, being of higher intelligence and skills, observes the environment before our finger pulls back on that trigger.
We further observe innocents which may be injured in our response to the threat.
We then act accordingly in order to not injure the innocents.
DO NOT critique if you were not the officer on scene.
Good job brother.
Merry Christmas.
ALERT:
LORI has ordered the Police Board to start moving all those stinker cases that those clouted asshats have sat on for years.
Groot wants all those austim cases and DICKs who cant handle AGG bat cases with deaths up north. GROOT wants a clean slate for her next pik .
90% chance the next supe will be a woman.
Look for the board to work on more than 5 cases a month!!!
OT.....Just wondering if I am suffering from delusions. Yesterday (Wed at 4pm) ABC 7 had a video clip about a piece of upcoming breaking news. It showed a B/W video of prisoners taking over a corrections van and breaking free. Thought they said Cook County......but they did say "More on this later"... Nothing else after that... Was it a 'goof'. a mistake, wrong video, ????? Or did someone clamp down on the news before too much got out......Is Dart hiding something?
Bec the top 200 cheated.
12/12/2019 01:35:00 PM
All of them? So you think no one on this department is smart enough to be able to score in the top 200? Not sure if that says more about your intelligence level or your low opinion of your coworkers.

I am offended by this. Why did they have to list the age and gender of the offenders? How does the media know what gender they identify as? This is both sexist and age discrimination.
Three bi-peds should be good enough for the general public to be adequately informed of this matter. If they did indeed walk upright.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=7Nzy4DVF0sI the video of the incident.
It looks like the officer ran fine on his own. Good for the female officer for having courage. If ever in that situation, do not underestimate the power of suppressive fire for cover. Even with just a handgun and several magazines, continuous fire at the offenders is better than turning your back and running.
Prayers for all police.
And Jackson Park Highlands used to be such a nice neighborhood, well the southside was until the mid-late 1960's. As a kid we could we could leave our bikes unlocked while swimming at the So Shore YMCA, 71st & Constance, oh you didn't know that was a YMCA, then we would bike back home and stop at Italian Fiesta Pizza 71 st and Euclid for a 25 cent slice of pizza and can of pop, and there were no pop pops from pistols. We went to the Hamilton Theater, east of Jeffrey blvd and saw Dr Shivago on Sunday afternoon without shivering as we walked home wondering if someone with a pistol was following us. Ah well a little rant about what it was.
I don't know EG from AC to 006 but I will tell you just from reading the comments I can tell supervisors did not like her & I believe she is right. Speak up when you are wronged & you will be eliminated, banned to patrol forever or even worse, psyched because you had the nerve to do speak up & do the right thing. Code of silence exist in the upper ranks so they keep their positions.
