Carjackings Down More Than 30% In Chicago
CHICAGO (CBS) -- All the recent snow may be helping keep Chicago drivers a bit safer.
Chicago Police said carjackings are down 35% in the last two weeks. On Thursday morning, CPD Superintendent David Brown tweeted that police have arrested 210 people for vehicle-related crimes so far this year.
But the key words are vehicle-related. Ninety-six of those arrested were charged with criminal trespass to vehicles. Sixty-seven for possession of a stolen vehicle.
Forty-seven were actually charged with vehicular hijacking.
