year

CHICAGO – Chicago saw something this week it hasn't seen in nearly a year:
An entire 24-hour period where there was not a single shooting or murder.
Police say the period of quiet happened Wednesday.
In recent months, Mayor Rahm Emanuel and Police Superintendent Garry
McCarthy have been touting a decision to put hundreds more police officers
on beat patrol. And in press releases this week, both of them said it's
paying off.
Emanuel had promised during his campaign for mayor that he would put more
police officers on the street. He says that the strategy that includes
redeploying officers who were on administrative duty is working.
Police say there were a number of shootings on Thursday but no homicides. |
