Hi, everyone. I've gotten more reports of violence in our community. This time, most of the events occurred on Monday (the 25th), and one occurred on Sunday (the 24th). So, going in chronically order, I'll share with the rest of you the reports I've gotten from concerned neighbors:
From Sunday's incident: "There was a shooting today (about 5 pm;) at Kimball and Palmer, a very busy intersection. Didn't see anything on the Tribune site or on your blog, wondering if you have any info? Thanks"
From Monday's events...
Comment #1: "Several Shots heard at about 10:00pm this evening from the 2900 N Block of Sawyer. A moment later, cop cars could be heard and thugs walking quickly southbound."
Comment #2: "Well, they moved south and west allright. Sounded like it was Kimball & Palmer-ish. Heard about 5 shots and the cops just got over there. What's over there?"
Comment #3: "did you hear any news about gun shots on diversey and drake on monday night, oct 25th, around 9:30?"
Well, damn. Lot of events in and around Kimball on Monday night. If anyone's got ANY comments, or insights to this, email me or comment here.

Knew something was happening Monday 9:30ish when I saw police cars hightailing it north on Kedzie, another north on Milwaukee and another west on Diversey.
I dont live near you but found your blog by accident. Very cool.

SPANISH COBRAS IMPERIAL GANGSTERS AND MANIAC LATIN DISCIPLES IS THE REASON! THERE'S A FREAKING WAR GOING ON OUT SIDE OUR DOORS. DAY AND NIGHT. JUST LIKE THE OLD ALPHONSE CAPONE DAYS!
I've been taking some time off recently to recover from being sick, but will be back soon. I wish I had my ear to my information sources on this Kimball Ave incident, but thanks for the gang war information...this has been building for quite some time.
It ain't over yet, so hold on to whatever you can because we all know there is going to be retaliation, and then retaliation for that and so forth!
Let's keep working together everyone!
Anonymous 6:25, I know exactly how you feel. Those three gangs are having a war where I am, too.
LoganSquareReporter, agreed. It has been building for quite some time. And, you're right. It ain't over, and it's far from it, I'm afraid. I'm sure there will be more retaliation.
We all need to keep working together, like LSR said.
Oh, and thanks, LilredWriting.

the SC'S, IG'S and the MLOD'S have been 'at war' for 30+ years.
shit, the current crop of knuckleheads have to be the fucking grandchildren of the goofballs from the early '80's, which is when the neighborhoods flipped from mostly white ethnics to mostly hispanics of various central and south american origins.
so, no need to go ALL CAPS, buddy, and, as far as the Capone days reference, it's not even close.
