As crime concerns mount in Chicago’s West Town community, neighbors call for reopening of police station – CBS2 (Chicago)

The demand comes in the wake of several headline-grabbing armed robberies of businesses in the area, and even an incident in which a 12-year-old was held up at gunpoint last year. "This station was closed over 12 years ago against the wishes of the community," said community leader Laura Yepez. "We have been dealing with the aftermath ever since."
