BATTERY

• A 36-year-old man got a brass knuckle sandwich following an argument with a man in his 20s on the 1600 block of West Howard Street around 10 p.m. Dec. 7. The victim told police that the argument escalated into violence, where the man punched the victim in the mouth. The man fled westbound on Howard.

New Star Blognotes: The following incidents were listed among official Chicago police reports from the Chicago Police Department in the 24th district. An arrest does not constitute a finding of guilt. Only a court of law can make that determination.

Brass knuckles? I thought that weapon, along with nunchuck sticks were banned in Illinois. Apparently someone was able to buy some.

And spray paint isn't sold in Chicago, yet the prevalence of graffiti lives on.
