CHICAGO -- At least 33 people have been shot, including six fatal shootings, across Chicago so far this weekend, police say.

A 29-year-old man found in a rolled over vehicle in the city's Little Village neighborhood early Sunday morning had been shot in the head, Chicago police said.

Officers responding to a person shot in the 3000-block of West 21st Street about 1:25 a.m. found a man in a rolled over vehicle with a gunshot wound to the head, CPD said.

He was taken to Mount Sinai Hospital in critical condition, where he died a short time later, police said.

Five men were shot early Saturday in the city's North Lawndale neighborhood, in the 1400-block of South Spaulding Avenue, police said.

There was another fatal shooting early Saturday after two men got into an altercation in Chicago Lawn, police said.

A 49-year-old man was shot in the chest around 1:45 a.m. Saturday in the 6500 block of South Kedzie Avenue and was pronounced at the scene, police said.

In non-fatal shootings, a 13-year-old boy was grazed by a bullet while riding his bike Saturday evening in South Shore, police said.

Around 5 p.m., someone in a red Hyundai fired shots while the boy, 13, was riding in the 1900-block of East 67th Street, according to Chicago police.

The boy was taken to Comer Children's Hospital, where he was listed in good condition.

No one is in custody and detectives are investigating.

Last weekend 40 were shot, four fatally, across Chicago.

It is. But until it’s 33 dead and six injured, the media will ignore.

Notice how the news keeps the focus on “gun violence”. Guess what else happened in Chicago? Rapes, robberies, muggings, assaults, disturbing the peace, shoplifting (which doesn’t even get reported anymore). By just reporting “gun violence”, they keep the narrative on guns rather than the complete breakdown of law and order in these cities. That number of gun murders is horrible. But people have more to worry about being robbed, assaulted and raped, which gets ignored for the sake of the narrative.

6 out of 33 is a little better score than last weekend but still embarrassing considering it’s a target rich environment.

Chicago needs more ‘Gun Free Zone’ signs put up to quell all these shootings. And more gun laws. And more gun registration.
