Getty Images(CNN) - A 17-year veteran of the Chicago Police Department apparently took his own life Monday night, becoming the force's fourth officer this year to die by suicide, police said. "Debilitating news for the #ChicagoPolice family as we come to grips with the unthinkable loss of a dedicated police officer to suicide tonight," Guglielmi tweeted Monday night. Patrols in the Rogers Park neighborhood will not be affected if colleagues of the officer are overcome with grief, Guglielmi said. The New York Police Department has also been shaken by a spate of officer suicides. Of nine NYPD officer suicides in 2019, seven have happened since June, with department brass looking for ways to tell the rank and file that it's OK to ask for help.

After local enthusiasts tried and failed to trap the reptile, Frank Robb arrived from St. Augustine on Sunday . I brought my fishing rod and it went down pretty fast, Robb said at a news conference at the park Tuesday morning. No harm will come to this alligator, said Kelley Gandurski, the executive director of the Chicago Animal Care and Control.
