The Chicago Morning Star editorial team monitors the crime chronicle and covers the activities of the Chicago police and other police in Illinois.

The work of any police department is very important for citizens. This is especially relevant for Chicago. Today, this is the place where one of the highest rates of gun violence in the United States is observed. In many ways, these indicators can be reduced only due to the activities of law enforcement agencies.

Police works as an non-stop scanner of activities on the streets. Monitoring open sources and official police reports reveals that the most common types of crime in other cities in the state are robbery and fraud. Another major problem for the state is drug trafficking. Every day, police throughout Illinois detain dozens of traffickers in amphetamine and other drugs. Courts convict people involved in drug trafficking every day. And we are quickly reporting the news to Illinois residents.

The work of the police also includes monitoring road safety during the holidays and organizing safety during public events. The editors of Chicago Morning Star thoroughly monitor all official police reports and the pages of departments of major cities of the state on social media.

We help our readers to keep abreast of the activities of the Chicago Police and provide citizens with the latest and most up-to-date information on crime reports in the city. Not less important, we consider informing citizens about the tips of the police to ensure their own safety.
