As seen around … Chicago

Found this in north Avondale parked on the street. The lettering that has been removed says “Jacksonville”, not sure if it’s really visible in the photo. It also appears—based on removed lettering—to have been assigned to the haz mat team before ending up here. Unsure who it belongs to or how it ended up in Avondale. Thought your readers might find it interesting.
