Two people were killed and at least seven others were wounded in shootings in Chicago Friday.

A 69-year-old man was shot to death in Austin on the West Side.

The man was in a home about 5:45 p.m. in the 300 block of South Kilpatrick Avenue when a suspect pulled out a gun and fired shots, Chicago police said.

He was struck in the chest and was taken to Mount Sinai Hospital, where he was pronounced dead, police said. His name hasn’t been released.

Hours later, another man was found fatally shot in Douglas on the South Side.

About 10:15 p.m., officers were responding to a Shot Spotter call in the 3400 block of South Indiana Avenue when they found a man with the multiple gunshot wounds, Chicago police said.

The man, 40, was shot in the chest, side and the hand, police said. He was pronounced dead at the scene.

At least six others were wounded in citywide shootings Friday.

At least nine people were wounded in citywide shootings Thursday.

“Feral descendants of Mrs. O’Leary cow again.”

uh no. Do not compare uncivilized ferals with a beast of the fields.

That cow contributed to society with milk and would have supplied meat to some family after she went dry if it had not been for a tragic accident.

Ferals only contribute to the murder rate in Chicago. Well, some of us do get some entertainment from the news stories.
