Bridge Jumper

There's currently a person threatening to jump off the West Side of the bridge at Randoph and Lakeshore Drive in Chicago.

scanner audio Starts at 1:50, 5:20, 6:50, 9:17, now they say over Chicago river.

Traffic on the scanner was busy so not sure if he was apprehended.

Another Bank Robbery

Heard that the bank at 1325 Howard St. in Evanston was robbed earlier today so I Googled the address and found out it was robbed last month on the 8th. Pretty crazy.

I was following this story last night at what I thought was Ashland and Hermitage but found out the streets were perpendicular. According to the story, it was at the 6000 block of S. Hermitage around 12:30am this morning.
