Another explosive device under investigation on Chicago's NW side. Battalion 8 has called in an EOD team and CPD B&A has responded. They don't seem too excited yet.

Situation in Chicago has been secured. The battalion chief was requesting that the repeater be turned off when he gave a status report on the situation. That disables anyone but the dispatcher from hearing his conversation. Not too unusual, but rare nonetheless. A HAZMAT level 1 in downtown Chicago was also just secured.

Been monitoring most of the day. LOTS of drills going on and radio equipment testing.

"I" am on the NW side, but oft times they describe this area wrong and it will be miles from me...any update RH?

Batt 8 is about 10 min away between myself and downtown
It is not the NW side but North, very close to the 5th PD near where Riverview once stood, to give folks a visual who know
