A 911 call of people fighting in the alley attracted several police units to the 3300 block of Halsted this morning. Officers did not see anyone fighting.

They did, however, see a drunk driver almost run over a bunch of people crossing the street at Roscoe and Halsted.

DUI arrest made at 826 W. Roscoe.

CWBChicago was created in 2013 by five residents of Wrigleyville and Boystown who had grown disheartened with inaccurate information that was being provided at local Community Policing (CAPS) meetings. Our coverage area has expanded since then to cover Lincoln Park, River North, The Loop, Uptown, and other North Side Areas. But our mission remains unchanged: To provide original public safety reporting with better context and greater detail than mainstream media outlets.
