At least 13 people were injured late Friday night when two gunmen opened fired from a vehicle into a crowd in the city's Princeton Park neighborhood, Chicago police said.
Police said at around 11 p.m., officers were called about a person who had been shot along West 95th Street near South Wentworth Avenue. A preliminary investigation determined a red SUV pulled alongside a large crowd, and two suspects inside the vehicle began firing gunshots before fleeing the scene.
When officers arrived on the scene, they found two people who had sustained gunshot injuries.
A 32-year-old woman was shot twice in the back and taken to an area hospital in good condition. The second victim, a 44-year-old man, sustained four gunshot wounds to his back, and was transported to a local hospital. He was also listed in good condition.
At least 10 other people sustained gunshot wounds, with the victims ranging between 17 and 47 years old.

Can’t we just airlift a bunch of select Chicagoans into Tehran and let them take care of business there?
That’s Chicongo for you.
Excellent idea.
If only Chicago had reasonable, modest, common-sense gun control, or at least was led by Democrats. Then this wouldn’t have happened.
Some Karmelos must have had their boundaries disrespected.
Sadly, in ghetto culture , being disrespected is a major offense to people.
And the response to being disrespected is often a violent response.
Yogi?
Just some Amish blowing off steam after the big USA win over the Aussies in the World Cup. Nothing to see here. Birmingham had another shooting and murders this week, also. Birmingham is rapidly becoming the Chicago South. There is one guy awaiting trial who murdered 12 to 14 people in shootings. Great towns, these Commie Dim-led cities!! Glad I live out in the country where there are clear fields of fire around my house.
Damien Laron McDaniel (also referred to as Damien McDaniel III), a 22- or 23-year-old man from the Fairfield/Birmingham area in Alabama, is the individual awaiting trial. He faces charges in connection with 18 murders (including an unborn child) and the wounding of more than 30 others across roughly 10 separate incidents in and around Birmingham/Jefferson County between July 2023 and September 2024.
3% causes 50% of the homicides in this country.
100 years later…
And the only significant changes are Glocks with switches replacing Thompsons and less regard for innocent bystanders.
It is a fact someone is shot every 3 hours in Chicago, sometimes more. Where is the outrage. why do people put up with this ?
Juneteenth celebration?
They will never admit it’s because of absent black fathers. Thanks LBJ for starting welfare for unwed mothers.
The libs always go after long guns with more and more restrictions. (Assault weapons). But they never go after handguns. That tells me that they are ok with their voters killing each other off. What the hell, even dead, they will still vote for the dims.
Thirteen people “in the wrong place at the wrong time” (Chicongo) and they “startled” two of their “neighborhood gunmen “neighbors”.
Nothing to see here ladies and gentlemen, just another weekend in the combat zone, the free-fire zone.
