Every homicide is another nail in the CompStat coffin:
- An 18-year-old man shot in the head at a South Side gas station this week died of his wounds, the Cook County medical examiner's office said today.
But the Clearance Rate went up!
The man wanted for questioning in the fatal shooting of a security guard at a River North Walgreens killed himself in Evanston hours after the murder, police in the north suburb said.
And police are investigating whether the alleged gunman was also responsible for gunning down a Skokie teenager Friday.
Nine more days left in January. Anyone have last year's February totals?
