19th District Craziness
The 19 th district shares the airwaves with the 23rd district here in Chicago, for those of you not familiar with the 19th district geographicly it uses the same north and south borders as the 23rd district Fullerton to Lawrence. The 19th district begins at Clark and heads west. Tonight they have been having non-stop craziness.
Some of the highlights so far was the first dispersal of the year for the “Bucket Boys” these are the guys with the pickle buckets that drum in front of busy places. There is a guy running down Lincoln Ave in a hospital gown and his private parts keep falling out as he is running. They have a love triangle on Hoyne Ave. with one of the participants armed with a box-cutter. There are a group of drunk people doing push-ups and sit-ups in an alley, off of Southport. Someone who lives on Newport heard what he thought was an explosion turned out that it was the EL going by, he just moved here from out of town and it is his first night living there and was not used to the noise the EL makes.
All of this was in the last 10 minutes, as soon as somthing happens in the 23rd district I will post it.

9:30 Post
Nothing to report, I actually checked the radio a couple of times to make sure it was on. It was just things have gotten real quiet around here tonight. So in order to make the post interesting I thought I would add a few of the spots that the Police like to eat at. Police usually know all the good places. 3292 Broadway is probably the number one place that they request time to take lunch at, this is the address for Windy City Gyros, a close second is Thorek Hospital, I checked the Cafeteria hours here and found that it was closed they must have a special deal for the Police.

A fistfight broke out offenders three black males took construction
horses and used them to beat out windows of a green Pontiac
Bonneville. The offenders fled east on Windsor in a dark blue sedan.
Then headed south on Clarendon. Police have stopped both cars a
warning for caution was issued as a weopon was found in the Bonneville
in a traffic stop last week on an unrelated incident.
The police have asked for the pod camera footage at Wilson and
Sheridan for help in sorting this out. All the video showed was three
black males fleeing south on Sheridan from the El Pollo Loco lot.
This was interesting to listen to from start to finish 30 minutes from
the start of the event till the police were reviewing footage on their
portable data terminals (PDT) as they refer to them on the radio.
Police apprehended both sets of offenders within 2 minutes.
