After another deadly weekend, Chicago’s top cop says violence is spreading to new areas as it declines in hardest-hit neighborhoods

Pressed about a rash of weekend shootings in downtown Chicago, the city’s top cop acknowledged Monday that more shootings are occurring there even as they decline in neighborhoods that have long struggled with gun violence.

“We’ve seen some displacement issues,” Supt. David Brown told reporters Monday. “We’re starting to see increases in areas that we normally don’t have those increases.”
