Seven people have been shot during one attack on Friday night on the South Side, Chicago police said.
The shooting happened about 8:05 p.m. in the 1600 block of West 65th Street in the West Englewood neighborhood, said Officer Norma Pelayo, who was citing preliminary information.
Further details were not immediately available.
Other Friday shootings left a 27-year-old man fatally wounded and three others wounded.
A “young male’’ between the ages of 15 and 17 shot himself in the head following a foot pursuit with police in the West Side’s Lawndale neighborhood, according to Chicago police spokesman Anthony Guglielmi.
It started about 7 p.m. in the 1500 block of South Keeler Avenue when police “discovered” him with a weapon. Officers attempted to question him when he led them on a brief foot pursuit. Shortly afterwards, he tragically used the weapon on himself, Guglielmi tweeted.
The male was taken in critical condition to Mount Sinai Hospital, police said.
