Do we know what the sirens last night were about? FB comments (sorry, I know) suggest it was an "attack" alert, not a tornado/weather alert.

All lanes of I-94 near Northbrook were closed Thursday after a crash caused live wires to dangle over the highway, according to Illinois State Police. The highway was still shut down as of 6 p.m. Thursday.

I'm watching this one. Laura Fine is (was?) the establishment pick but hasn't been nearly as visible as DB or KA.
NEW IL-09 poll with the Justice Coalition Action: Daniel Biss and Kat Abughazaleh are tied for first in the Democratic primary with 18% of the vote.

Laura Fine trails in third with 10%, and all other candidates receive 6% or less of the vote.

ICE agents in Northbrook point rifles at bystanders, try to break down door at apartment complex just north of Lake and east of Milwaukee Road. This is an almost unthinkable trespass to those of us who live in an upper middle class suburb.

Thinking about those solar-powered robocop trailers in the Lowe's parking lot and how I sometimes hear them "speak"
Two similar incidents, one at Lowe's and the other at Crate & Barrel: walk in, take stuff, walk out, drive away

Of the many scam reports I've read in the police bulletin, this one may be the worst: "a subject texted him regarding investing money in crypto currency … the complainant sent
$250,000 - $300,000 to the account" (!!!)

I know saw something about the architect(s) admitting sandcrawlers inspired this design, but am having trouble finding anything online to back it up. It's obvious though, right?

This may be a passage from a paranormal romance novel, but is this about Willow Hill?
Even among the ugliness of evil that resonated throughout the green hills and flowering landscape, Northbrook was simply breathtaking to those who took the time to appreciate it.
