* New Commander in the 24th District (Updated in Comment section)
Looks as if the Police Department Personal Shuffle Continues: Second City Cop blog is reporting Commander Rottner will be moved to the Deputy Chief Area 3 position - and Deputy Chief Steven Caluris will be moving to the 24th district's head job. You heard it here second. Nothing further.

Oh well, at least you got the better deal than the residents of the 20th District. Empty holsters posing as Policemen. Neither one would know a Policeman if he came up and bit them in the ass. Good luck.
With Organized Crime being so prevalent and what seems like the number #1 business in Rogers Park, I hope his experience in the Organized Crime Division will be of use?
When the heat's on, send out a crime is down report. Hey, Joe, you're a phony fuck. Best part about this, it cost his campaign war-chest about $50 bucks to send this email blast out.
Police Commander Rottner Named New Deputy Chief
Dear Neighbor,
Congratulations to our 24th Police District Police Commander Bruce Rottner! Chicago's new Police Superintendent, Jody Weis, has selected Commander Rottner, to be part of his new leadership team as the new Deputy Chief of Patrol for Area 3. Area 3 covers all the north side police districts, including the 24th District. Commander Rottner will assume his new assignment on Sunday.
Superintendent Weis has selected veteran Chicago Police Sergeant, Steve Caluris, to be the new 24th District Commander. Caluris has served in the 24th District in the past, and Commander Rottner assures me that Caluris is an excellent community-oriented police official who will continue Commander Rottner hands-on approach in his new role as 24th District Commander.
Commander Rottner has served on the Chicago Police Department for over 33 years, with the vast majority of his tenure in the 24th District. He has served as Police Commander for the last three years and oversaw a continued decrease in the crime rate in the 24th District, which includes the entire 49th Ward. Under Commander Rottner's leadership, the 24th District last year ranked first in the city in percentage reduction in crime.
Superintendent Weis recognized Commander Rottner's exemplary record in tapping him to be part of his leadership team. I have enjoyed working with Commander Rottner and will be sorry to see him go. We were extremely fortunate to have him as our district commander. But this is an exciting opportunity for Commander Rottner, and I look forward to working with him in his new role.
Congratulations to the new Deputy Chief!
Sincerely,
Joe Moore
Organized crime? In Rogers Park? Be a little more definitive please.
