Two men have been killed and three others were injured in a mass shooting at a Chicago Father's Day celebration.
Gunfire broke out at a gathering in the Roseland neighborhood near West 99th Street and South Princeton Avenue just before 8pm.
A 37-year-old man was shot in his head and a 33-year-old man was shot in the neck, and both men died from their injuries, according to police.
Another 27-year-old man is in critical condition after he was blasted in the buttocks and shoulder, while a 19-year-old and 25-year-old were also shot but are in stable condition.
It comes after at least 48 people were shot, eight of them fatally, in shootings across Chicago this weekend.
A Father's Day event, which is a decades-long neighborhood tradition, was taking place in Roseland before the violence began.
An altercation started at the park barbeque before a car pulled up and someone inside opened fire. There was no word on what led to the disagreement.
All of the victims were taken to the University of Chicago Medical Center and Roseland and Christ hospitals.
One man, who wanted to remain anonymous, claimed he heard around 100 shots and said: 'That wasn't no handgun.'
A woman, who did not want to be identified, said she heard the shots and it sent her and her family ducking for cover.
Resident Michael Henry described what he heard from a relative who lives on the block where the shooting happened.

“48 people were shot, eight of them fatally, in shootings across Chicago this weekend”
Those numbers are the norm for a Chicago weekend of blaque exuberance while on drugs. Marijuana is the fave these days. Most rappers promote their day long marijuana smoking. And the young urban blaques idolize and copy them. Copy their marijuana usage.
This is why their shooting is wildly inaccurate. With loads wounded.
Oh, bother. Thanks.
Happy Juneteenth!
Chicago Father’s Day party: 48 shot and eight killed in weekend of bloodshed in the Windy City.

Oh, well that makes your point...if they are so highly black populated they MUST be feral animals...get a conscience moron
“Oh, well that makes your point...”
Actually it does. So exactly how much time to you spend with large groups of black teens in the wee hours of the morning?

Well, most black teens are sleeping in the wee hours of the morning just like most people. Do you where white robes at night and dream of ropes and trees?
“Well, most black teens are sleeping in the wee hours of the morning just like most people.”
Not in Willowbrook, apparently. Or in Englewood, or Pullman, or Garfield Park, or any other black majority inner city neighborhood you can name.
“Do you where white robes at night and dream of ropes and trees?”
No. I dream of a country where people of all races, creeds, and colors raise their kids to be civilized human beings who don’t gather by the hundreds on city streets at 1 am and shoot each other on a weekly basis.
Too bad we don’t live in that country.
