Yeah, 2071, you can show us clear from the prisoner detail in Swedish. We'll take the check the well-being on, I think you said Virginia, and also the suspicious person on Lincoln. If you could send us both of those. 10-4, thank you. I appreciate it. 2061 Adam. 2061 Adam. There's a pod cam, 5190 Charlie at McCutcheon and Margit, right where we found the other casings.

I walked past that park about 5 minutes before the shooting. It was full of kids. 😤. I heard the shots when I got to Lawrence.

It was 2 shots, a pause then about 6 more. I unfortunately live right by and they've got red tape up all over now. Shell casings on the sidewalk

Don’t understand why there is so much crime in that area, it’s so close to the lakefront/beach. How has it not been gentrified yet
