The 16-year-old boy was shot in the leg and taken to St. Francis Hospital in Evanston, where he was listed in good condition, police said. The girl suffered cuts to her arm from broken glass and was taken to the same hospital.
No one is in custody as Area Three detectives investigate.

I’m not impressed with the ratio of shootings to deaths.
It must be that sideways gun holding...
Warm-up for Memorial Day weekend.
Black Lives that don’t seem to matter.. At all... To anyone. What a damn shame.

what does Mayor LightBRAIN have to say about this?
Safe to say we do not know..... only a black reporter could ask her. She only focuses on important things like the skin color of media types.....
The war on cops is alive and well in Chicago so considering we are not even close to the peak of the warm weather it will get much worse if history is any indicator.
Sad.
A gun free workers’ paradise. But there were still guns. The solution? Make it harder for law abiding citizens to defend themselves. More gun control is just the ticket. Remember the liberal mantra “We just didn’t go far enough”. When something the government does fails to work or more often makes the situation worse the Democrat answer is to do more of it. If you’re in government NEVER EVER admit you did the wrong thing because everyone knows the dipsticks that make the laws are always right.
Even the Palestinian terrorists can do a ceasefire.
Hey, it’s only 7:30 pm Sunday night in Chitown...LOTS of time left to get those numbers up.
A 19% fatality rate is unacceptable. We need to get these Utes into so marksmanship classes...
Another “mass” killing goes unnoticed by the democrat party’s media.
How can the police wound and kill so many fine citizens with impunity? The police need to be stopped. So many aspiring rappers, gentle giants, college bound and wonderful people being killed by white supremacy.
Our local High School kids have held plenty of BLM marches around town. I’ll bet they are on their way to Chitown right now to sing Kumbaya and stop the shooting.
Mr Rogers to the bass player. “Let’s go to the magic kingdom”
Bass player’s response “Oh no man. It’s too early in the day for me, but you go ahead”
(natnl lampoon version). Bill Murray was mr Rogers
Instead of concentrating on Israeli/Palestinian problems, they ought to be concerned about Chicago...
“No one is in custody as Area Three detectives investigate.”
Good luck with the investigation.
Snort.

I suppose they could DeFund the police and probably make a few more laws agains defending oneself. They need a new Mayor...with some balls.
Black lives do not matter to their fellow blacks.
What kind of measures could be done since they have let things get out of hand?
