As massive crowds descend on Chicago this weekend, police are stepping up patrols of both uniformed and undercover officers.
With larger crowds than ever before, the Office of Emergency Management is increasing safety for this year's celebrations — including displaying pole marker signs along the route to help paradegoers easily report their location in the event they need to call 911.In addition to Sunday’s parade, "Pride in the Park" is also back, taking place Saturday and Sunday in Grant Park.
"We’ve been planning and preparing, and we’ve been communicating and over-communicating our plan and asking for feedback from all the stakeholders, and we’ve conducted a city-wide agency tabletop exercise to prepare even more. We’ve added more resources to this year’s Pride Parade than we have in the past, as well as increase our intelligence coordination and organizers than we have in the past," said Chicago Police Supt. David Brown.
