What is public peace violation in Chicago?

Public peace violations are offenses against public order — disorderly conduct, reckless conduct, mob action, false police reports, and bomb or gun threats. The umbrella Illinois statute is disorderly conduct (720 ILCS 5/26-1), which covers acts done "in an unreasonable manner" that alarm or disturb others and provoke a breach of the peace.

Chicago PD descriptions here include "reckless conduct," "mob action," "false report of offense," and bomb/gun threats. Most reports are misdemeanors, but threats against schools and transit draw felony charges and heavy police response.
