Forest Park police shut down a house party at a two-flat on the 1100 block of Troost Avenue after an attendee called to say that someone stuck a gun to her head.
The call came in on March 4 at 12:46 a.m. The dispatcher heard screaming in the background. The caller hung up, and the dispatcher tried to reach her without success.
The police drove to the property and tried to get inside. “Numerous female occupants” denied that there were any problems and tried to keep the officers out. After Forest Park officers couldn’t reach the property owner, a Brookfield man who has been renting it out on the Airbnb short-term rental booking platform, they reached out to their Brookfield counterparts. The Brookfield police were able to reach the owner.
