"The Chicago Police Department’s top priority is the safety and wellbeing of our residents and visitors, including our city’s youth. The reckless, disruptive and violent behavior that was seen downtown this past weekend will not be tolerated. We encourage our young people to be safe and responsible as they enjoy their weekends, but anyone engaged in criminal activity will be arrested and held accountable.
"We strongly encourage parents to accompany their teens or have them remain under the supervision of a responsible adult," the police department added.said CPD has assured her they are making adjustments to make sure this doesn't happen again. "The vast majority of people came downtown because it was great weather and an opportunity to enjoy the city. That's absolutely and entirely appropriate. There were a few that came with different intentions and they have and they will be dealt with. I'm not going to use your language, which I think is wrong, to say there's ‘mayhem,’" Lightfoot told reporters Monday.
