ShotSpotter Replacement, Tollways Price Hike, and Crosstown Delivers Classic

It has been two years since Mayor Brandon Johnson ended the city’s contract with the gunshot detection company Sound Thinking, also known as ShotSpotter, to the chagrin of some alders. City Hall has kept the door open for a replacement, and two alders have begun testing new options. We discussed SplitSec AI with Chicago Public Media’s Arionne Nettles and Block Club Chicago’s Melody Mercado.
