A great day for this site
Hi folks. Today has been a great day for this new crime blotter site and myself. Today, Craig Gernhardt from "The Broken Heart of Rogers Park" mentioned this website on his blog. He saids "Timmy, AKA 'Sullivan High School Kid', has started a neighborhood blog modeled after yours truly. It's called Avondale/Logan Square Crime Blotter. Tim has gotten himself a scanner and monitors his neighborhoods 911 calls,".
Also, I have been offered to do a weekly column regarding Sullivan high school for his website. This offer is an honor to me and I have accepted this honor, so every Tuesday, on that site, you will see an "article" from me regarding my high school. I will link it up here.
Craig told me today that I did some quality reporting for yesterday's blog. That was very nice to hear. I didn't think anyone would appreciate my work on this site or would even care, but it has been proved to me that people do care and want to monitor crime. Eventually, there could be ways to stop all this crime in the neighborhood.
Craig also informed me that he was going to "recommend you to the Chicago Tribune best neighborhood blogs,". I feel that this is also an honor because I have never been recommended to anything or anybody, and neither have my websites, so this is a big honor. I really hope people read this crime blotter from there. They have a right to be informed.
So, this is Timmy, doing a blog here. Peace out everyone. I will try my very best not to fail anybody on this crime blotter.

A little explanation
Okay, I feel like I have to explain something here. Here goes. Even though west of the tracks on Beats 2523, 2524, 2525 and 2535 fall within Hermosa, I will still cover that area because if I didn't, there'd be too small of a coverage area for this blotter. Also, even though south of 1800N on 2535's beat falls within Humboldt Park, I will also cover that area still as well because again, if I didn't, there'd be too small of a coverage area for this blotter.

16 yr old shot down in Logan Square
Good morning, everyone. It's 6:21am right now. I woke up a bit late this morning, at 5:45am (I have to be up at 5:30am), so i'm a bit off this morning. I will be monitoring crime for the next 15 minutes before I have to go, then I will be back in the afternoon. Here is an artice from the Chicago Journal, coming from the 14th district:
16 yr old shot down in Logan Square
A homicide occurred on the 3000 block of W. Wellington at 7:32 p.m. on Nov. 21, police said in a report. The victim, a 16-year-old Chicago resident whose name was redacted from police reports, was shot in the back and hip and pronounced dead at Illinois Masonic Hospital shortly after the incident, according to reports. A witness told police that he was walking on Wellington when he saw an old car, heading north on Albany, pull to a stop and a man between 18 and 25-years-old step out. The offender yelled and fired several rounds at the victim before speeding off, according to the report. At the time of the report, no arrests had been made.
Logan Square muggers punch first, ask questions later
A robbery occurred on the 2200 block of N. Kimball at 6:40 p.m. on Nov. 17, according to authorities. The victim told police that he was on the sidewalk, talking on his cell phone, when two young men surrounded him and started punching him in the face and body. "Give us your money!" one of the men yelled. One of the men took out a blue steel handgun and threatened to shoot the victim, who handed over his cell phone. The victim suffered minor injuries to his face but refused medical attention, according to police. At the time of the report, no arrests had been made.
Alright, I am gone until 3pm now, so have a good day everyone. Oh, by the way, I will not be here tomorrow (Thanksgiving) until about 8 or 9pm tomorrow and I will monitor crime from that time 'til I go to bed.

Scanner disturbing last night
Good morning to everyone out there reading this. It's 6:12am and i'm monitoring crime for about 20 minutes before the school bus comes to pick me up. Anyway, just before the shift change last night (around 9:45pm), I was told that a police officer and the dispatcher had started flirting with each other, right? Well, from the sound of things, that flirt was very disturbing, because the dispatcher said at one point "oooo, you make me wet" and other dirty things to the officer. That officer was liking it, but the other officers were reportedly very disturbed by this. One officer reportedly said "What??". I think this is disturbing because that dispatcher was obivously saying maybe she masturbed since she said "oooo you make me wet" and the officer whom she was flirting with was like "ooooo yeeeeah!!". The dispatcher i'm talking about is one of the ladies who is "detailed to the citywide", but was "filling in over here for a little while". Personally, I think whoever was in charge for assigning people their zones/citywides last night should've kept her on the citywide. She's known for being a smart butt, making comments about almost every job she reads out to these cops. She gets a real nasty attitude with the police as well. She doesn't let them have "travel time" to lunch. Very mean lady in general. I just hope her supervisor heard all of this last night and maybe take some action. We, the listening public, and the officers shouldn't have to be subject to some cocky mouth like that woman on the radio last night. Now my rant is over and I hope everyone has a good day. I'll be back later today, around 3 or 4pm.

Welcome to the Avondale/Logan Square Crime Blotter page!
Hello everyone, welcome to the Avondale/Logan Square Crime Blotter page! I'm Timmy, the creator of the site. This site is about the crime in the Avondale and Logan Square neighborhoods on Chicago's Northwest side. I was inspired by "The Broken Heart of Rogers Park" (made by Craig Gernhardt) and the "Edgewater Crime Blotter" to create this website. Those two websites are very good with details of crime in their areas, so I decided to make a website for crime in my neighborhood, Avondale.
About me: I am a 15 year old male, with a condition known as Autism. You'd think a 15 year old like myself would be comitting lots of crime, or thugging outside, but I don't do that in any way. I'd rather STOP crime in my neighborhood. I attend Sullivan High School, in the Rogers Park neighborhood (it is a pretty decent school, except for when the everyday brawls happen. Read Craig Gernhardt's "The Broken Heart of Rogers Park" about this topic). My hobbies are watching TV, going out on weekends to travel to various places in Chicago (also to take photographs of CTA buses, my favorite hobby of all time), being with family and friends, being on the computer, and of course, listening to Zone 12 on my police scanner.
I am a nice person, but I won't take crap from nobody in comments (if anybody is nice enough to comment) on this blog. Any discrimation or hate in the comments will NOT be tolerated. Also, comments regarding crime are welcome at ANY time, but again, please, no racism or hate.
All information on this crime blotter will be coming from my police scanner, but I may post some Chicago Journal articles (they have a crime blotter for Logan Square as well, but not as extensive on details as I have planned for mine) on crime.
The police district that will be monitored on this blog is the 25th District, Grand Central. I will be covering Beats 2523 (the beat I live on), 2524, 2525 and 2535 (north of North Avenue). I wish I owned another scanner or two to pick up the 14th and 17th Districts (they also cover Avondale/Logan Square), but I don't, so crime info on this blotter will only be coming from the 25th District.
I hope everyone is well informed of crime in the neighborhood by reading this blotter. And, if you can, enjoy!
