Egging Cars

by Paul

While standing in my driveway last night about 11:30 p.m. I heard a thump as a white Ford/ Mercury SUV drove past a white Scion parked across the street. I didn't realize it at first, but a few minutes later I walked over to the Scion and realized that the SUV full of teens had thrown an egg at it. I drove around the block to see of I could find the teens, but they were long gone.

I tried to wipe most of the egg off the Scion but I am not sure of who's car it was.

Just thought I would let the neighbors know.

Add Little Tikes toys and turn on the blow torch

by Libby Booker

Neighbors, do you really think that plastic lawn chairs, no matter how artfully arranged, improve the look of your front yard?

    Sure, chairs are for sitting, but some homeowners, mostly west of Western, mistakenly consider them lawn decor. You'll recognize them. . .placed with care in the middle of the lawn, gently angled toward each other, as if waiting for the lord and lady of the manner to alight. . . all the while screaming "We decorate with plastic and we don't care who knows it."

Gang in Mt. Greenwood Park
Det Bill Brogan is warning all those living in the Mt. Greenwood area: Latin Saint gang members from 45th and Wood were hanging around Mt. Greenwood Park yesterday after their court case at Br 35. (20 of them were arrested in St Casmir last month at a memorial - Mac 11 and pistol recovered) Yesterday, they claimed to be enjoying a nice day in a safe park. 022 did a great job and dispersed them but the word is they may have been recruiting for a Mt. Greenwood section. Please report any suspicious people looking in cars, throwing gang signs etc. The Latin Saints wear baby blue clothing ( North Carolina jerseys, etc) and have Hispanic, black and white members. They'll only get it if you let them take it. Again, please call 911. Feel free to repost.

    After many years in law enforcement I feel perfectly safe in stating that if thugs from 45th and Wood are coming all the way to 111th and Central Park to relax after court they are doing so at the bequest of a female from this neighborhood. She likes him enough to hang w/him in a safe park but not at 45th and Wood.

    I agree. I use to do the same thing.i.e. travel cross town just to see a girl that I liked. All CTA and through "enemy territory". It was love.

Citywide staff pick

From New Bike Racks - where did they come from?:

"Just curious about the new bike racks you see through Lakeview. They are cool colors and in the shape of a bike. I like them and just wondering if they were purchased by the city or some how locally. Any comments would be helpful?"
