Holiday Weekend!
We may or may not be traveling, so updates might be sporadic.
The heat is sticking around for a little while, but there's a good chance of rain in the forecasts every day. Some people are off Friday and others are extending their weekend to take in Monday.
Therefore, we're going to set the Holiday Weekend Casualty Prediction Model as follows:
- 1700 hours Friday until 0500 hours Monday
A full 60 hours. And we'll make a wild stab at the numbers:
- 8 dead, 20 wounded
As a tie-breaker, we'll predict 2 "mass" shootings (four casualties regardless of ending body temperature).
As a further tie-breaker, we're going to predict a single firework death involving some sort of mortar round. If anyone knows how to track missing fingers, toes and eyeballs, let us know - we can't seem to find a HeyJackass.com category for those.
Make your guesses, place your bets, and stay safe.

The trend is in full swing and crime is about to be fully out of control. A lot of things are coming together on favoring the criminals.
Brandon’s bragging “crime is down”. Is it because potential victims are staying II side or out of sight? A lot of heat out there and machine gunning a victim at 400 N LaSalle inviting retaliation? I’m setting my over/under of holiday shootings at an even 60.
7 dead, 24 wounded.
Area5 prt in absolute panic mode. Most arrests I have seen in a while from them. False plate police is back and giving a warm welcome for Ricky. Hope yall won't get dumped like the mechanic and the bald twins
Can we out the idiots who on department emails from the Superintendent or exempts who respond with the heart emoji etc. Idiots !
You're on the low side for Chicago. 12 dead, 34 wounded.
7-25
5 and 42
6 - 31. I mass shooting at a large west side out of control street party...seems like thats the usual story every summer holiday.
My prediction is 9 & 45
Your prediction sounds good considering we are expecting several rain delays. If you're humping a beat car be safe and watch each other's six.
I always get my family out of Chicago during 4th and go to Michigan. Too much of a chance for a disaster to occur in Chicago. Why take a chance with family.
There must be some type of quantitative measurment. Temp+Dew Point+Thug= ....or Temp+Sandwich Shoppe+MAGA country+bad actor=
New math or same-o, same-oh my my!
Chicago running out of people to kill.
There's so much away from Illinois. So much. Your retirees say it all!
Here's hoping for BIG numbers killed not wounded this weekend and all demoCRAPS
Don't forget terrorist attacks on the usual soft targets. DC in particular, along with Chicago, NYC and LA. Hope it doesn't happen but the stars seem to be aligned.
I’m going with 14/35.
Come on, 8 and 20? If we try real hard, we can do better.
" ...Let the games begin..", Nero. as he watched Rome burn.
To those too young to remember 1976, remember 2026. Fifty years from now
you will be saying WTF happened
6 and 32. Hospitals on full staff for those ventilated by gunshot or mutilated by fireworks stupidity. What will be, will be. Stay hidden, ride slow to the carnage, full lights and siren, and a safe return home to YOUR family.
14 and 63 - too many picnics, parades, block parties, and teen riots. Majority of people don’t know how to act right.
With the cost of living in Chicago very high, I can see things going very bad. How many robberies go wrong and the victims get murdered. Crazy!
11 dead , 23 wounded , 3 mass shootings , no deaths from fireworks . how many deaths will be prevented by our state of the art shot spotter technology?
Federal Law enforcement task force in Chicago,Illinois have made 599 arrests for murder,armed robbery, drugs,child trafficking and rescued 24 children from being sex workers. Yet Gov.JB Pigster, Mayor BJ conehead say crime down and refuse to cooperate with federal law enforcement.
My crystal ball says 2 dead 10 shot …. slow weekend since the city will be in mourning from Larry’s retirement news.. Boom shakalaka!
I don’t see much foot traffic in certain neighborhoods after the sun goes down.
4 MASS shootings on July 4 weekend. Stay Safe boys and girls.
It all depends on the weather and for now, it looks like no rain tomorrow night.
Be safe CPD.
Keep the line moving!
10 and 25. 1 boat on the breakwall.
Going big 12 and 32
12 and 42
Wright it down
8 Dead 38 Wounded
OT: Retired guy here. Just spoke with a guy who is detailed tomorrow to the Obama Center. Apparently the CPD has to guard that monstrosity! He said they were told that the police cannot enter the facility to use the bathroom during their tour-of-duty. Told to go down the block to the YMCA. Can anyone else confirm this?
