Not official report. AI-generated from public dispatch audio. Always verify with official sources.

Officers respond to a vehicle fire in an alley near West Flournoy Street. Witnesses report that a man and a woman left the burning vehicle and ran south through the alley. One witness notes the man wore a white hooded sweatshirt and dark pants, and the woman wore a black shirt and coat. Officers initially cannot find a license plate on the car and wait for the fire to cool to read the vehicle identification number, which is then checked. At the same time, radio traffic mentions a separate call about a woman with suicidal thoughts on South Kedzie, a domestic dispute reported by a third party on Swannanoaway, and information about a group possibly planning a shooting in the area of California Avenue between Polk Street and Jackson Boulevard. Units are asked to use caution and watch that area.
