Two people are in fair condition after gunshots were exchanged between an armed attacker and a concealed carry holder in the River North neighborhood overnight, according to Chicago police.
Citing preliminary information, CPD said a 22-year-old man was driving a 21-year-old woman eastbound in the 100 block of West Superior when two white sedans boxed them in around 2:55 a.m. Friday. An armed man got out of one of the sedans and began shooting at the victims’ car, striking the woman in her leg and arm, police said.
A 23-year-old man was then shot in the leg when the woman’s driver — a concealed carry holder — returned fire, according to police.
The concealed carry holder then drove away with his passenger, but the two sedans reportedly chased them and caused their vehicle to crash into a building on the 100 block of West Huron moments later.

Still, the victims in this case were able to defend themselves.
They survived.
sounds like a well-planned hit
River North is one of the nicer parts of town.
The crap is flowing out of the ghetto.
It failed.
We don't know if any of the assailants were injured.
One of my favorite places to visit in the country. Always stay in this very area. Probably not again anytime soon.
Mine, too. There were a couple of late-night shootings last year or the year before - they happened late in the wee hours of the morning like this one did.
Like I used to tell my kids, there is nothing good that can happen to you outside after midnight.
Interesting that they didn't come out and identify the 3rd 'victim' as one of the assailants. We can only infer that the 3rd one was one of the bad guys. Also of note that no description was given. I'm just saying...
It does look like she tagged one.
That lends a lot of evidence to the case.
Too bad the police are being so badly degraded in Chicago.
“There were a couple of late-night shootings last year or the year before”
Different people?
Yes, but people on cars just like this one. Not multiple cars attacking...
The woman didn’t shoot anyone her DRIVER did....she was shot.
