Chicago (Tribune) – Chicago police Superintendent Garry McCarthy on Wednesday said the number of shootings, particularly gang-related ones, has dropped sharply in the first 2 ½ months of 2014.

At a news conference at a police station in the Englewood neighborhood, one of the city’s most violent over the years, McCarthy downplayed the harsh winter season as a factor, instead crediting crime-fighting strategies he has initiated over the last year and a half.

Emphasis added.

Let’s see what Garry “Streetlight Assassin” McCarthy has to say a month or two after the weather warms up markedly.

It’ll be amusing to watch him make excuse after excuse, stammering and stuttering the whole time.
