An 18-year-old woman was shot on the Dan Ryan Expressway early Thursday morning, after getting into an argument with someone in another vehicle.
Illinois State Police shut down the outbound lanes of the expressway for more than an hour while they investigated and searched for evidence, but no shell casings were found.
Police said the woman was a passenger in a van whose occupants got into an argument with someone in a blue car at a gas station near 79th Street and Lafayette Avenue around 2:20 a.m. The victims then drove onto the southbound lanes of the Dan Ryan Expressway.

just one shooting? is that all? I expect larger numbers from mighty Chicago. /s
Well it is only Thursday......... Hmmmm. Let’s see. Eighteen year old female out at 0220? Probably on the way home from choir practice or cleaning up a homeless shelter.
I “tap honk” these days. Too many crazy people out there willing to shoot you over nothing.
Double tap?
OMG! Not the Dan Ryan!
Wait...wasn’t he commish that looked the other way when unions decided to bomb the haymarket?
I might be wrong...
I wouldn’t drive down the Dan Ryan Expressway in anything less than an armored car! Trump should also build a wall around Chicago, throw in a few thousand guns and let the “god folks there” settle things without any outside inerference.
January to Date
Shot & Killed: 45
Shot & Wounded: 216
Total Shot: 261
Total Homicides: 47
So what is so special about this case??????
It was a young feminist exploring her boundaries . . . or something like that. Yellow journalism at its best (or worst) depending upon ones’ point of view.
Special because it shut down an expressway for an hour.
Instead of blaring the horn I punch it twice. That way it’s telling someone to go at the green light instead of exiting their car and shooting me
Cars are glass boxes. Some thug or idiot with a gun off his meds that day and you’re toast.
That reminds me of commie Cronkite’s Vietnam war broadcasts in the 1960’s.
That damn Ryan!
Perhaps hypothermicide this time of year? Or poisoning? Or defenestration?
Yeah, but it was, when nothing good happens "...around 2:20 a.m." when one is out and about.
At least it wasn't mentally incompetent #BLM supporters encasing limbs in barrels of concrete to block AM rush hour traffic.
Maybe a revolver was used.
Just look crazier than them, and they’ll leave you alone. Another rule to live by - keep a few dents in your car; it gives you more room on the expressway and in parking lots.
Or maybe the empty casings landed back in the perps vehcle. Seems they tend to forget about revolvers. Just more proof the anti gunners are idiots.
The woman and other people in the car had gotten into an argument with someone in another car near 79th Street and Lafayette Avenue in the West Chatham neighborhood shortly after 2 a.m., Illinois State Police said in a statement.
The second car followed the woman’s car onto the 79th Street ramp to the southbound Dan Ryan, where someone in the second car fired âmultiple shots at the victimsâ vehicle,â state police said.
