"Man with gun arrested near schools" in Elmhurst

On April 16th in Elmhurst, a man was waiting for a bus and was illegally carrying a gun and misrepresented himself as a police officer by having a hat and badge. I don't understand how he got the badge or hat, but I'm glad the cops were able to arrest him. It's scary to think how anyone can just do that, especially since it is so close to our college campus.

I am sorry what? I would never believe that. For some reason i think of Elmhurst as pleasantville. That weapons just aren't around.

haha as much as I'd like to think of Elmhurst as 'pleasantville', I know it's not. Did you know that Elmhurst, IL has the greatest amount of porn downloaded in the U.S. out of every other city, ELMHURST! haha so i guess it's not as innocent as we all would like to think
