CHICAGO - A 15-year-old girl was among 11 wounded in citywide shootings Thursday.

The girl was inside her home about 2 a.m. in the 8000 block of South Crandon Avenue when a male fired a gun in a different part of the house, Chicago police said.

A bullet grazed the teen in the thigh, and she was taken to the University of Chicago Medical Center in good condition, police said.

Two people were shot about the same time in separate shootings in Chicago Lawn. About 2:33 p.m., a man, 18, was in a car in the 6400 block of South Troy Street when he was shot in the back, police said. He was taken to Holy Cross Hospital, where his condition was stabilized, police said.

About the same time, almost a mile-and-a-half northwest, a 20-year-old man was walking in the 6600 block of South Artesian Avenue when he was struck in the leg by gunfire, police said.

Eight others were wounded in shootings in Chicago Thursday.

At least nine people were wounded in shootings Wednesday across Chicago.

No one was killed in Chicongo yesterday? Just nine people shot?

Must have been a slow day.

Beetlejuice doesn’t really care. I feel bad for those that can’t feel Chicago, but at the same time, I’m glad they don’t go elsewhere and bring their politics with them.

Yeah, Chicago politicians are trying to figure out how to reduce violent crime without actually putting anyone in jail. ‘Gun Control’ is the only thing they talk about when ‘Criminal Control’ is what they need.

“Need more range time.”

I agree! It’s high time to bring back firearms safety and marksmanship classes to the public schools!!!

It would be so nice to get back to a more sensible time when we had conversations like this in our public schools:

Teacher: “Johnny Smith brought a shotgun to school today!!”

Principal: “Oh really? I’ll have to see if he wants company dove hunting after school today.”

Guessing the unidentified man who randomly shot a gun in some other part of the house was mama’s boyfriend.

Trauma surgeons in Chicago's ERs have become some of the best in the world at treating gunshot wounds.

“more range time”

As per the ‘Hey Jackass’ site, 50 shot this week so far, with only two fatalities. I’m guessing the perps are trying out new weird angles to hold the piece while firing.

It starts for real, today.
Yesterday was just ‘practice’ for the hood rats.

At one time South Troy and Artesian were solid Lithuanian and Polish neighborhoods with a few Irish mixed in.

Holy Cross Hospital was founded by Lithuanian Nuns. It WAS a very nice peaceful neighborhood.

If the perps shoot someone below the waist, the defendant only gets a stern lecture and two free boxes of 9mm ammo.
