CHICAGO -- Eighteen people were shot, four fatally, in Chicago gun violence over the weekend, police said.
One teenage boy was fatally shot and another critically wounded in a shooting Saturday afternoon in Little Village on the Southwest Side. The teen boys were inside a vehicle making a drug transaction about 1:20 p.m. in the 2300-block of South Sawyer Avenue when two suspects pulled out guns and fired shots, Chicago police said. A 16-year-old boy was shot in the head and was taken to Mount Sinai Hospital in critical condition, police said. He died to his injuries. The other, 17, was struck in the neck and self-transported to St. Anthony's Hospital, police said. He was later transferred to Mt. Sinai in critical condition.
A man was found shot in West Ridge early Saturday morning on the North Side. The man, 24, was found with a gunshot wound to the torso about 12:10 a.m. in the 5900-block of North Western Avenue, police said. He was taken to Saint Francis Hospital, where he was in fair condition, police said.
An 8-year-old girl was among five people killed last weekend in gun violence in Chicago. At least 22 people were shot in all.

Send truckloads of free malt liquor and loaded pistols into Chiraq on every Friday evening.
A few weeks of that and the problem will be solved!
we keep hearing about the increase in murders since the Fentynal Floyd riots. What I want to find out is how many of the murders are just one dirtbag killing another dirtbag and how many are dirtbags killing hardworking, taxpaying folks. I’m betting that the majority of the increase in murders are dirtbag on dirtbag killings.
Rather than teaching racist anti-white CRT, Chicago should teach kids:
1 - don’t steal stuff that is not yours
2 - don’t shoot people
The basics.
Mayor Lightfoot said we have to invest more, in some undefined way, in order to bring crime under control.
Where she will get the money to invest, and what she will invest the money in, to fight crime, is unknown.
The count seems a little low this week, must have been the weather.
It was a quiet weekend in Lake Woebegone..................
“ Send truckloads of free malt liquor and loaded pistols into Chiraq on every Friday evening.”
That is racist and counter productive.
Spread flyers in downtown areas advertising free Air Jordans to be given away in a gated community 60 miles from the city on election day
Seems kinda low for the typical Chicago weekend, must have been some bad weather up there.
Yeah, they had lake effect snow, but I don’t know how much.

4 dead
someone needs more practice
