Chicago PD: Personal lives of Police at the heart of Spinoff
"‘Chicago Fire” producers were scouting the old Monroe District police station for their upcoming spinoff when someone noticed a framed photo in what had been the commander’s office.
The man in the photo was Chicago Police officer Brian Strouse, 33, fatally shot by a gang member in a Pilsen alley in 2001.
The show’s writers wanted to know more. They talked to a couple of officers who were with Strouse the night he was gunned down.
“It’s still a very difficult memory for them,” said “Chicago Fire” showrunner Matt Olmstead, an executive producer of the spinoff, “Chicago PD.” “You see these tough cops get quiet. It was a real defining moment for the show in terms of what we’re trying to do: to tell stories about what the cops go through personally, how they approach the job and how they interact with each other. That’s the heart of it.”

Chicago PD: It's Official!
NBC has picked up "Chicago PD," a spinoff of "Chicago Fire," the network announced Friday.
Rumors first started flying that a "Chicago Fire" spinoff was in the works at NBC in March.
Check out NBC's description of the show below:
"District 21 of the Chicago Police Department is made up of two distinctly different groups. There are the uniformed cops who patrol the beat and go head to head with the city’s street crimes. And there’s the Intelligence Unit, the team that combats the city’s major offenses – organized crime, drug traffi cking, high profile murders and beyond.
Leading the Intelligence team is Sergeant Hank Voight (Jason Beghe), a man not against skirting the law in the pursuit of justice. Demanding and tough, only those who can take the heat survive under Voight’s command. Take Detective Antonio Dawson (Jon Seda) – despite his troubled history with his boss, Dawson has ambitions of running the unit… so if that means facing off against Voight every day, he’ll persevere. From the street cops with dreams of moving up to the elite crew who are already in, “life on the job” is a daily challenge. The enormous responsibilities that come with the territory take an emotional toll, as we’ll f nd when we follow the personal lives of our characters outside the walls of District 21. From Emmy®-winning producer Dick Wolf and the team behind “Chicago Fire” comes Chicago PD, a gripping, character-driven new police drama about those who put it all on the line to serve and protect."
