CHICAGO (WLS) -- At least 103 people have been shot, 19 fatally, in gun violence across Chicago since Wednesday evening during the extended Fourth of July holiday weekend, police said.
Mayor Brandon Johnson and Chicago Police Superintendent Larr y Snelling will hold a press conference Monday morning to address the violence.
The latest shooting took place in the West Chesterfield neighborhood.
Two people were shot, one fatally at about 11:51 p.m. in the 700-block of East 89th Place.
Minutes before that, one person was shot an killed in the 200-block of North Central Avenue in the South Austin neighborhood.

Having a press conference is probably all they will actually do.
With all the practice these “youths & teens” are getting, I’d expect a ratio closer to 25%.
Below 20% is just downright unacceptable.
Even accounting for 50% of the shots being fired from a moving vehicle, when you take into consideration the fact that they’re in the 2-20’ range, the kill ratio could be much higher. Chicongo, let’s go!
one white cop does his job and its a national uproar, burned cities, rapes murder millions of dollars in damage no one arrested or prosecuted, black idiot mayor from 48 to over 100 shootings and killings in his city and not a peep from anyone black. I guess blacks’ killing blacks is ok
Sounds like lots of yutes that need to get to the range!
The mayor was doing his job!! He was on the NBC pre-race show in a fire suit, talking about the NASCAR race. I think NASCAR should redesign the course next year - bring it out to some other areas of the city... š¤
Meanwhile the disgraced George Soros sponsored prosecutor, Kim Foxx, has announced that her office will no longer prosecuted arrests made as a result of traffic stops despite the fact that SCOTUS upheld the validity of such cases nearly a century ago! Foxx is seeking felony charges against a motorist who splashed her with a soft drink. The inept Chicago Mayor is seeking to cancel a contract with Shotspotter, a technology that allows police to trace shots fired. Welcome Democrats to Chicago for the DNC!
It’s safer in Ukraine than in Chicago.
āGun violenceā?
Just regular holiday festivities.

Can we rest assured all the shooters had FOID cards to carry firearms?(Sarc)

I wonder how many are going to be killed during the Dem Convention.
Chicagoans, doing their part to make America great again.
What planned parenthood couldn’t catch, the gangs do.
Teamwork.
Somewhere Margaret Sanger is smiling.
Seems to me they need some marksmanship trainingā¦
Note to self...Cancel summertime evening walking tour of Chicago neighborhoods.
Somehow this will end up being my fault since I’m a middle class, middle age, married family man who lives 100’s of miles away from Chi town.
INSTEAD, heās handing out money we donāt have to make himself and his democrat cronies look like theyāre doing something.
The money should be going to beef up law enforcement, both ON THE STREETS and IN THE COURTROOM.
I donāt live in Chicago, but Iām close enough that that lawlessness has been spilling over into our communities here. And then thereās the illegals to deal with. We donāt know who they are or where they are, and thatās very worrisome.
ChiCongo, ChiCongo that toddling town!
Sounds like MS13 is moving into the hoods for the take over.
They finally. Broke 100. With all those hood rats using illegally acquired hand guns, they’re under 21, it should have happened sooner. These kids have no formal training and have to pray n spray to hit anything.
