CHICAGO -- Four people were killed and 18 others were wounded in weekend shootings in Chicago, police said.
A man was shot and killed early Saturday in the Chatham neighborhood. The 23-year-old was in an alley in the 8400-block of South Wabash when someone approached and shot him multiple times about 2:30 a.m., Chicago police said. He was pronounced dead at the scene, police said.
Another man was shot to death while sitting in his car early Sunday in Little Italy on the Near West Side. The man, 32, was in his car about 1:40 a.m. in the 1300-block of South Morgan Street when two men walked up to him and opened gunfire, striking him in the head, police said. He was taken initially in critical condition to Stroger Hospital, where he died from his wounds, police said.
Chicago police are also investigating a Friday evening shooting that ended with the victim's car flipped over on the city's South Side. Officers said the 21-year-old driver was shot in the head. ABC7 was told he was traveling near 54th and Hoyne in Back of the Yards around 5:53 p.m. when someone on foot opened fire on him. He lost control of his vehicle and struck two parked cars before rolling over, police said. So, far no one is in custody. At last check, the driver was in critical condition. Authorities did not immediately provide further information about the shooting.

Dear ABC,
It is not “gun” violence.
Ben
Amish gangs must have had a Super bowl truce.
Weather must have warmed up - 22 shot means directly correlates to a temperature of about 50 Deg. F
I’m fine with all this as long as it stays within their “community”
Culling the herd.......
4 for 22? Chicago is in serious need of shooting ranges. You would think these leftists would be demanding some kind of government program that provides free shooting ranges to just negroes.
Average, nothing special.
Another Lori Light in the Loafers quiet weekend in Chi Town.
Say whut? This must be some white racist honkies Police in Chi Congo
Maybe Biden should issue a Travel Warning for Chicago?
Four dead and 18 wounded sound kind of low for Chicago. I remember weekly numbers double that a few years back.
It’s not quite fighting season yet.
And the Bears were not even in the Superbowl.
