Chicago Police Offifficers and Cook County law enforcement offifficers hit the floor at the United Center for a charity basketball game benefiting the Cook County Memorial Foundation in early March. CPD came out on top at the event, which also featured a tribute to Commander Paul Bauer.
Youth Explorers and 3rd District offifficers came together for the “Healthy Plates with the Police” pro- gram, which had kids cooking side-by-side with family members and offifficers of all ranks. The monthly initiative, which en- courages nutritious eating, continues in early April.
A bizarre tale of intrigue, smuggling and murder set in Chicago and the special unit created to solve the crimes.
It’s fiction, but how close to the truth is it when it takes place in Chicago? It’s
a roller coaster of events with a bit of politics thrown in, but hey, it’s Chicago!
Chicago Ice is authored by retired officer Dick Wiser, a 27-year street veteran of the CPD.
About the Author: Having worked multiple assignments both in uniform and plain clothes over his CPD career, Wiser received multiple awards and had more than his share of incidents that make good reading: sad, funny, heart-breaking, evil and more than just a few just downright stupid. A hint of some of those events are recounted in this – his first published book.
Wiser is retired and enjoying life with his wife of over
50 years, daughter and son Rick, who is a lieutenant in the CPD Detective Division.
A “must read” for those who like action and a change of pace from everyday life.
