Dear Neighbor:
In the last two days there have been instances of shots fired in our community:
I am working closely with the 20th and 24th Police District Commanders to directly address these issues. The Chicago Police Department is investigating these incidents and reviewing video footage. There will be increased police presence in the impacted areas. I will share further updates about these occurrences in Friday’s newsletter.
If you have additional information regarding these incidents, please contact Area North Detectives at 312-744-8263. I ask residents to be aware of their surroundings and to report any suspicious individuals, activity, or vehicles to 911.
I encourage you to attend your local CAPS beat meetings to get regular updates from the police regarding safety issues close to your home or business. To find out which police district and beat you belong to, click here to find out.
Please contact Alan Oviedo in my office with questions or concerns regarding public safety matters in the ward. Alan can be reach at alan@48thward.org or 773-784-5277.
Sincerely,
Harry Osterman
Alderman, 48th Ward
