Shots Fired at Police in 016

  • Police were conducting a manhunt this evening after an off-duty Chicago police officer exchanged gunfire with at least two would-be robbers this afternoon on the Far Northwest Side, authorities said.

    No one was injured in the incident about 5:45 p,m. near Lunt and Algonquin avenues, not far from the city’s border with Niles, police said. As of 7:45 p,m., police were conducting a manhunt for the suspects, believed to be traveling in a purple Honda CRV.

    The vehicle’s front-passenger side window apparently was shot out during the exchange of fire.

    A man who owns a store near Addison and Elston avenues had pulled into his driveway near Lunt and Algonquin, when the Honda pulled up behind him, police said. The robbers, wearing masks, got out of the Honda with guns drawn and tried to rob the man.

    Soon after, the off-duty officer, who works security at the man’s store, pulled up behind the robbers’ vehicle, apparently thwarting the robbery, police said.

    The officer exchanged gunfire with the robbers, but no one was hit, police said.
No hits, but a bold as hell move following the business owner home and then exchanging gunfire with the off duty. Side jobs can be way more dangerous than riding around in uniform sometimes. Be careful.

Apparently a multiple offender with the same M.O sporting a Mohawk at the Starbucks.


Customers maced, attacked at Lakeview Starbucks (Clark/Belmont)

The assailants were described as three male blacks in their 20s, wearing dark-colored clothing.

One offender has a Mohawk with a blond streak in it, said police.

Percentage of homicides by stabbing have doubled so far in 2012!!


03/07/2012
-----

Nine people have been stabbed to death in Chicago homicides so far this year, a RedEye analysis found. Stabbings account for nearly 12 percent of the 76 homicides in the city in 2012, as of presstime.

Six percent of the 441 homicides last year were stabbings, RedEye data show.

---
Meanwhile, February ended last week with 28 homicides, up from 25 homicides in February 2011, RedEye determined.

Eight homicides have been recorded so far this month. Police logged 22 homicides in March last year, RedEye found.

So 016 is down 100, and yet 011 on 3rd watch can down TWELVE cars, which include 4 primary beat cars, every night in "zones", leaving the remaining cars to answer the calls in the permanent backlog. Every domestic and priority 1 call has about 40 minutes on it by the time we are even dispatched to it. And...wait for it....people are STILL being shot in 011! But we are being told that it doesn't matter unless it's in a "zone". So good luck 016. You're not in a "zone", so you just don't count. Glad our guys are ok, and stay safe up there.

All you guys working side jobs: make darned sure you've got insurance. The City isn't going to cover you when you're out working a side job, and the City shouldn't.

And the business that hires you is going to say you're an independent contractor - and they're not responsible for the damage an independent contractor does. You'll be shocked how fast your side job employer throws you under the bus when somebody gets shot.

Get insurance.

I don't know how the mayor and super aren't held as they say it accountable. They are gods just ask them. In this city we live in a dictatorship but the public is too stupid to even know they are getting screwed and lied to everyday. There is not one honest word that comes out of either of their mouths. But we will keep catering to the blacks and hispanics and everyother non white or American becasue that is the now American way. It sure sucks to be an American living in Chicago.

Unfortunately, it's inevitable. As older, tax-paying folks who have been here for years get old, die, move to warmer climates, etc., the shitheads begin to move in. Look at the south and west sides. They weren't always the wastelands they are now. It was simply an evolution. It's not to say that 016 will become a ghetto overnight ... the demographic shift will take years. But ... you can't stop it. You just have to hope you can tough it out long enough to retire and then get the hell out of Dodge.

You are an idiot! The commander may get a bit of input, but the city is looking at business license revenue and there is no way that the supposed cash strapped city would deny a $2,000+ per year business license. Are you the same idiot that used to post on how the 16th District POLICE allowed the roadrunners m.c. club to rent a spot near Harlem and Foster? You are fucking stupid. It's a private club and the POLICE don't get to say no, and neither do you. ASSWIPE! Oh yeah...McNaughton is a politician, he catered to many questionable entities while in 016. Was he able to help get the Capitol Club shut down??? NO! How bout Club Euro on Irving??? NO! Now go polish the former 16th district leaders shoes and let him tell you how he made such a great difference in 016 that he is now driving to 008 every day.

I live north but work south and I am always at least trying to look out for my fellow brothers. And if a south sider copper gets involved in something I dont say something as asinine as "oh you should move north."

Its quite simple:

2. Save your OT $$
3. Spouse working for city
4. Down payment on a nice house up north
5. Save $$ on not having to pay for private school

Ummmm, ok. After reading the numerous stories about all the real problems in 016 an 017 I think yor right. I will stay south. Obviously it's much cleaner and safer than what your having to deal with up north... And before you try to argue again make sure you re read all of the stories including this one about thugs shooting, stabbing and robbing up in your "home front".. Because its not happening in mt greenwood.. Now you better get back to putting The burglar bars on your windows .. If you need me, I'll be enjoying the nice neighborhood I live in by sitting in my yard by the fire enjoying a fine cigar.. Sleep well.. Even though the beast is lurking around up there..

How about the police officer leaving the tavern near your 112th and Homan a while ago who had his head bashed in apparently by some city worker from the tavern. That was sure swept under the rug.

And I've never had anyone piss in my lawn .. And get your geography right.. Western ave is beverly and morgan park.. Not mt greenwood... Mt greenwood starts at sacramento.. Well is there anything else you want to make up so you can pretend your making a valid point?? Burning tires trash and bodies... Hahaha, what a joke. Now go enjoy what's left of your hood..
