December 10, 2016. Warning!

In case you are wondering about the 14,000 or so, drunk people wondering our neighborhood streets dressed in "Christmas attire" - it's the 2016 version of TBOX. (12 Bars of Xmas) Good luck and avoid the Yule Logs.

Organizers will have at least 80 additional security guards to buffer CPD's efforts.

I just had a conversation with a 19th District Police Officer. There has been a recent rash of criminal activity on Southport and other shopping streets in the the neighborhood including Roscoe Village. They are asking for the public's support as well as the shop owners and employees. If you spot a group fitting this description in the neighborhood: The group consists of 4-5 African American Males approx 18-25 years old. They will enter businesses and try to engage in conversation, e.g. ask if the store is hiring, if they can purchase some services, or otherwise idle conversation. During this distraction, other members of the group will steal items from patrons or the store. They ask that if you see this group in the neighborhood that fits this description, that you immediately call 911 to report seeing them. They are actively trying to stop this theft ring.
