As CBS 2's Tara Molina reported, the Lincoln Park community held a meeting about their concerns Tuesday evening. A big turnout was expected ahead of time at the meeting because of the continued concerning crime in the area -- such that the meeting was moved from The Warehouse on Fullerton Avenue to St. Josaphat School, 2245 N. Southport Ave., to accommodate the crowd.
We've heard about that nervous, uneasy feeling from Lakeview to Lincoln Park, with at least 11 armed robberies in the past week. One of the victims, 26, fell to the ground and the robbers took his wallet and an unknown amount of money at gunpoint. The other, 25, ran to safety. "This is an opportunity for our neighborhood to really take hold of itself and start becoming really active partners with police here in the 18th District," Comer said."People are worried about walking at night by themselves," Comer said. People are worried if their car is going to be next." "People are wondering what the neighborhood is going to turn into if this keeps continuing," he said.
AldermanSmith43 AldermanHopkins you have to make safety a bigger issue. Right now outside my house, North and Clark, all the streets are closed because there are hundreds of people jumping on cars and fighting. Motorcycles are flying down the sidewalks. This is INSANE.
Any analysis on the times these happen?
Or is it these neighbors? I taught liberal Lakeview wanted to abolish the Police or did we forget ACAB?
These neighbors?

Dakotah Earley, 23, undergoes more surgeries days after being shot in Lincoln Park robberyThe 23-year-old culinary arts student was shot at close range in a robbery at Wayne and Webster avenues early Friday morning. Why the silence from chicagosmayor and ChiefDavidBrown? Why do they refuse to make any public statement about this heinous crime? There should be an all-out manhunt to find these criminals. Should have traced his phone immediately. His shooting & suffering lays squarely at the feet of leftist democrat governance, & where it's worst is w/ black Democrat leftist governance. He was shot in the foot for his password, shot in the stomach for his password then shot in the head for sport. Prayers for his recovery
