By Sunday evening of Memorial Day weekend, Chicago police had responded to the shootings of 34 people, five of whom died of their injuries, officials said.
The grim tally grew as a shooting Sunday about 6 a.m. in the 1300 block of West Hastings Street left two dead and three injured. The shooting was possibly in retaliation for an earlier one in the same University Village neighborhood where large crowds had gathered, and which also left a man dead, investigators said.

Guglielmi said detectives are questioning four people of interest in connection with the shooting of five people on Hastings, in the ABLA Homes public housing community.
Multiple weapons have been recovered and detectives believe our offender opened fire on a group of people with a TEC-9 semi-automatic machine pistol. Two victims suffered fatal injuries and two others are being treated at an area hospital, he said in a statement.

They sure know how to party down in Chicongo!
the five dead is fairly simple..
It is the wounded that the taxpayers get stuck with ‘supporting’ for the duration.
So at least if they are going to shoot each other, do us all a favor and just put them at room temperature.
Should be at least 50 by midnight monday. Common Chiraq we’re pulling for you.
1. No one cares about these black lives.
2. Chicago has the toughest gun control laws in the nation. They don’t work. Gun control does not equal crime control.

Isn’t Chicago a one-party democrat Utopia or something?
34 shot and only five dead, obviously no one’s going for bragging rights, I really do believe they were much better shooters in Detroit in the mid 70’s.
I can hardly wait for the summer opener, less than a month away!
Chicago is trying to outdo the first couple of days of Ramadan.
