Good Luck Chicago: City Faces Shortage of Police Officers Ahead of DNC
Chicago Police Supt. Larry Snelling warns of police officer shortage in lead-up to summer DNC.
As summer and the DNC approaches, the Democrat hellhole of Chicago is facing a crisis with a major shortage of police officers.
At a public forum with the Commission for Public Safety and Accountability last week, Chicago Police Supt. Larry Snelling said, “What we’re doing right now is making the best with the number of officers that we have.”
Snelling added, “We are down. We’re down close to 2,000 officers.”
Riccio said with just under 2,000 officers short, the department will pull from special units first.
“Units that normally supplement those officers now become the officers doing the patrolling,” he said.
