CHICAGO -- Sixty-five people were shot, five fatally, in shootings across Chicago over the weekend, police said.

A 16-year-old boy was near a parking lot in the 5900-block of South Indiana Avenue in the Washington Park neighborhood when he was shot in the abdomen around 6 p.m., Chicago police said. The teen was rushed to Comer Children's Hospital, where he was pronounced dead, police said.

Earlier in the day, a few blocks away, a man and a 25-year-old woman were arguing in the 5400-block of South Winchester Avenue around 3:30 a.m. when a 37-year-old man tried to intervene. The other man pulled out a gun and opened fire, striking the 37-year-old in the head, police said. He was pronounced dead at the scene. The woman was shot in the armpit and taken to the University of Chicago Medical Center, where her condition was stabilized, police said.

Three people were wounded, one fatally, while changing a tire about 3:20 a.m. in the 3300-block of West Harrison Street.

On Saturday, a man was fatally shot at a party in Logan Square. Someone pulled out a handgun during an argument and shot Carlos Villagomez, 34, in the head at the gathering in the 3700-block of West Fullerton.

Less than an hour later, four people were wounded in East Garfield Park - the fourth mass shooting in the area in the last three months. About 1:45 a.m., a group of people were standing in the street in the 2700 -lock of West Jackson Boulevard when a black truck approached and someone got out and began firing a rifle, Chicago police said.

Eight people were killed and at least 17 others, including an off duty Chicago police officer, were wounded by gunfire across Chicago last weekend.

Americans need to bring a class action lawsuit against those crazy Chicagoans for wasting ammunition.

There is only one way to bring Chicago’s crime problem under control.
The removal of a particular demographic.

Just a weekend cultural tradition.

Strange how they know the gender, age, the time of day, the location... but have no idea as to the race.

5 / 65 is a success rate of only 7.6%.

More range time needed to get that percentage up.

65 shot and not a peep from anyone in government. Imagine if a white guy shot 65 people somewhere? Black lives matter is a pure lie only meant to bring in money and power to a few elite black hucksters.
