CHICAGO (WLS) -- At least 35 people have been shot, four fatally, in gun violence across Chicago so far this weekend, police said.
A concealed-carry license holder shot and critically injured a man during a shootout on Chicago's South Side early Saturday morning, police said.
Police said the shooting happened in the Englewood neighborhood's 200-block of West 63rd Street at about 1:40 a.m.
Two men, 36 and 49 years old, were arguing at a gas station when the 36-year-old got a gun out of his vehicle and fired at the 49-year-old, police said. The 49-year-old, a CCL holder, returned fire and hit the 36-year-old in his arm.
The 36-year-old was transported to St. Bernard Hospital, where he is listed in critical condition.
Area One detectives are investigating. Police did not immediately provide further information about the shooting.
A man was found fatally shot Sunday night in Roseland on the Far South Side.
About 11:40 p.m., officers responding to a call of shots fired in the 100-block of West 113th Street found a 34-year-old man sitting in a vehicle with a gunshot wound to his left ear, Chicago police said.
He was taken to Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn where he was pronounced dead, police said.

Yes a result of defund the police
The 4th should be interesting/fire works and gun fire.
Must be gunning up the holiday.
Those are the reported numbers - the gangbangers usually don’t call the Cops to report a shooting.
In critical condition from getting shot in the arm? Did he get shot with an RPG?
Probably one of those 9mm lung blower-outers the Feeb-in-Chief blathered about.
Those dumbass Chicagoans better start conserving their ammo. Once Trump kicks Joe Pedo’s ass in November, no telling what the Bidenskyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy crime family will do. I know we can expect another couple books from little Mary Trump saying Uncle Donald is a meanie. She’s in the bucks Uncle Donald didn’t give her.
..another Chicago weekend..
..another YAWN from the anti-gun crowd..
They'll only report if it was done by a white male.
So of course they'll refuse to report anything that happens in cities of a certain demographic like Baltimore or Chicago.
Bring in tha Kenyan peacekeepers!
These crims in Chicongo definitely need some more range time.
Those killed will not be alive to see the July 4th carnage.
Chicagoans should be ashamed and join with police to stop this.
They know the perps and the soon to be perps but follow the snitches get stitches code. Would rather let innocent people including children get shot by thugs they know or are related to.
These clowns can't even shoot straight: 35 homies shot, and only 4 fatalities. Pathetic.
Must have been a quiet weekend for Chi.
