Evanston Police Department

Overall the EPD can be OK however almost every morning I see a few officers who think they don’t have to obey the stop signs in the community I LIVE IN, and there’s a few that think their Walker Texas Ranger. The biggest disappointment is the way they handle and treat people with developmental disabilities. Unfortunately they need EXTENSIVE training. respect is LOST

My encounter with the Evanston PD was pretty damn aggravating. I word in TV news and we always stay outside the police tape at a crime scene and I parked my live truck next to a scene and was promptly told to leave because I was to close, despite being told by one officer I was fine where I was.
No problem. You’ve got the gun and a more important job than I do today. You gotta catch the evil doers. I moved. Than in the next spot, 5 minutes before our live shot, a photog from CBS decides to go under the crime scene tape. What the hell are you doing!
This pisses the cops off and he comes over and demands we move from a LEGAL parking space on a public road.
First off, I’m not in your crime scene, but I’ll do you a favor and move after my first hit.
Second, I’m not CBS! Why you yellin’ at me?
When we didn’t move fast enough to his liking, he parked his squad car in front of our camera, no problem, and shined his search light in our lens during our hit. WTF.
Maybe he’s just made cuz he lives in stuck up ass Evanston. I hate this town…
