Good job officers! Bravo!
RIGHT ON CPD! This is what we need, quick arrests to get these ghetto thugs off the streets. Now all we have to have are the judges on board to send them away!
ReplyDeleteThe CPD is on a roll!
ReplyDeleteI wonder why CPD is able to locate offenders in Lincoln Park and in Uptown on a consistent basis, but they can never locate the offenders in Boystown? Hhmmm...
ReplyDeleteThank you CPD. I hope these scum bags rot in hell for attacking an elderly person. Scum bags like to pick on the meek and helpless.
