Teen Loiters On Monticello

Good evening, everyone, it's 7:10pm. I had a good day. I traveled into the Lincoln Park neighborhood, just to escape here for a little while. I also turned in some old toys of mine into the Salvation Army on Fullerton. Anyway, it's going to be a clear night with tempatures only falling into the low 60s. I'll be monitoring closely for any activity. Are you all ready for tomorrow? I ask because I'm thinking we'll see a big uptick in violence because of the warm weather. Here's crime for tonight.
