CHICAGO (CBS) — As CBS 2’s Jermont Terry reported, Chicago Police and school leaders tried to reassure students they will be safe. This came a day after students pushed for changes during a protest. Chicago Police and University of Chicago Police will be working more jointly moving forward. A safety plan discussed Wednesday night entails live cameras from a new operations center soon set to open, and keeping campus police and students in the loop about crime in the area – as students have been demanding.
A week ago Tuesday, Dennis Shaoxiong Zheng, 24, was shot and killed during a robbery at 54th Place and Ellis Avenue.
