Cops Out of Schools!

Wish granted.

Meanwhile....:

• Officials are beefing up security at a North Side high school after a gang-related shooting left a 15-year-old boy injured at Hamlin Park on Friday afternoon. The shooting, a source said, is part of escalating tensions between the Maniac Latin Disciples and Insane Deuces street gangs.

  In an email distributed Saturday afternoon, Ald. Scott Waguespack (32nd) said Chicago police “believe this was a targeted incident related to gang affiliations,” adding that CPD will be increasing its presence during Alcott High School dismissals next week.

  Additionally, CWBChicago has learned that more shots were fired in the neighborhood early Saturday. At about 3:39 a.m., residents reported gunfire in the 3100 block of North Leavitt, and one 911 caller reported that a bullet went through their window. Shell casings were found at the scene. While no injuries were reported, a source familiar with Friday’s shooting investigation felt confident that the overnight incident was related to the ongoing gang conflict.

Don't take this as us supporting cops in schools. We thought they should be out on the streets years ago where they're supposed to be.

But it is amusing that Conehead cancels ShotSpotter and gunfire and dead bodies are going unreported. Now cops are out of schools and gang conflicts are popping up without warning or via cops who might have had a few informants on the inside.
