Track Crime in Your Neighborhood
CrimeReports.com is a new service started last year that overlays police reports on maps, so people can view where arrests and other police calls that have been made. The Chicago Police Department crime reports can be mapped with this system using Google maps. Users can configure e-mail alerts to notify them of crimes in locations of interest within a day.
