CHICAGO (WLS) -- At least 25 people have been shot, five fatally, in Memorial Day weekend gun violence across Chicago, police said.

A 5-year-old girl was shot to death on Sunday on the city's West Side, police said.

The shooting happened around 3:32 a.m..

A group was standing outside when shots were fired.

The girl was inside a parked vehicle when she was shot in the abdomen and taken to the hospital, where she later died.

Last year in Chicago, there were 53 people shot and 11 killed over Memorial Day weekend.

The sickest part is that there are literally HUNDREDS of murderers running free around Chicago.

We’ve still got Sunday and, since it is a holiday, Monday to see them run of the violence statistics.

Rain delay will have a bearing on the final score.

What is a 5-yr old girl doing outside in a vehicle at 3:30 in the morning?!

Nothing good happens in these neighborhoods after dark. Even before dark. It’s insane. And the city just rolled out a “summer safety program” a couple days ago. Some safety!

20% kill rate. Need more practice. Range time may help.

We’ll have to wait for Monday midnight to know, but here’s hoping that Chicago pulls it out and racks up an all-time high score in all areas!

Shouldn’t the score be posted AFTER the Memorial Day weekend concludes?

The weather has cooled off with intermittent rain, so the 2nd part of the weekend should provide lower numbers. Sadly, these numbers never reach critical mass; just enough to make headlines.
