What is concealed carry license violation in Chicago?

Concealed carry license violations are breaches of the Illinois Firearm Concealed Carry Act (430 ILCS 66) by people who hold a CCL — carrying into prohibited areas like schools, bars, or transit, carrying while under the influence, or failing to disclose to officers. These differ from unlawful-use-of-weapon charges, which apply to carrying without any license.

Chicago PD logs these under dedicated concealed-carry IUCR descriptions, most commonly prohibited-area and under-the-influence violations. The category is small relative to general weapons violations since it only covers licensed carriers.
