The Latest: Chicago police count fewer gun deaths than Trump

The Latest on President Donald Trump’s tweet indicating he would “send in the Feds” to bring down Chicago’s homicide rate : The Chicago Police Department is not disputing the figures that President Donald Trump tweeted about the city’s gun violence Tuesday night, though the department’s own numbers differ slightly because it uses a different counting method. In a Tuesday night tweet, Trump said there have been 228 shootings this year with 42 killings, and he vowed to “send in the Feds” if Chicago can’t reduce its rising homicide rate.
