Under pressure over Chicago’s ongoing spike in carjackings, Mayor Lori Lightfoot said Wednesday that the issue is “top of mind” for her and announced the police department has added 40 officers to teams investigating the crimes. The mayor also called the recent increase in carjackings a “region-wide crisis” and said she’d convene local mayors and police superintendents later this week to talk about a “regional solution” to the problem.
