Good morning, everyone, it's 12am. It's supposed to storm today. Not sure if the storms will be bad or what, but I do know it's supposed to be stormy. And humid, with temps around 90. Anyway, if the weather's nice enough in the morning (before 10am), I'm going to take a walk over to Ken-Well Park. Afterwards, I'll be here all day. Well, I have nothing else to say, so here's crime for today.

This blog is great. Good journalism. Do you know if any Chicago cops read it?
Thank you. Yes, there are cops who read it, but only far and few in between. A couple of cops out of the 24th read it, and I think a couple out of the 25th read it too.
Here are the approximate areas where shootings occurred last night in our general area (from the Tribune):
5200 West Addison Street
4100 N Kimball Ave
3400 West Irving Park Road
2600 North Hamlin Avenue
3800 West Grand Avenue
Things would be so different if everyone in Avondale/Logan Square read this blog. Our environment will change only when we care enough to change.
Thanks for all you do!
ProdigalOne, I agree 100%. And no problem.
Nobody, well, those locations all did happen in Area 5's (Grand/Central detectives) area. But the only one that really occurred in this area was the one on Hamlin, and I did a post on that a little while ago. The one on Addison happen in Portage Park, and the one on Grand happen in Humboldt Park. Those two shootings on Irving Park and Kimball happened in the Irving Park neighborhood. Regardless of where all of these shooting happened, though, it's a shame.
True, it really is a shame. The reason I posted them is because on the Tribune they were all listed as Northwest side shootings. Which they are of course. Whenever I see the Northwest side on the Trib I always get a little angry that our neighborhood remains violent.
Keep up the good work!
The NW side of the city is having a lot of problems with gangs, drugs and what not a lot lately. Not every neighborhood, but there are some. I get angry as well, as we shouldn't have to put up with it.
