Authorities in Chicago responded to at least six deadly shootings across the city in another bloody weekend that also resulted in an additional 18 people injured in the gunfire, according to a report.


CBS Chicago reported that one of the wounded included a 3-year-old girl who was inside a home at the time that she was shot in the wrist. The report said that a person of interest is being questioned in the shooting.

One of the fatal shootings in the city occurred in Marquette Park. The Chicago Sun-Times reported that a homeowner fatally shot a suspected burglar, who was reportedly in his 40s.


The Chicago Tribune has been tracking homicides across the city and reported that 631 people have been killed this year, which is a 193 jump from last year. The vast majority of homicides in the city were from gun violence.


Fox 32 Chicago reported Sunday that a man was stabbed multiple times and left in critical condition after getting into a verbal confrontation inside a store on the city’s West Side.

I thought they had really strict gun control laws in the murder capitol of the world?

Yeah, they do.
Some of the most restrictive in America.
Just like Washington DC.
Along with some of the most lenient courts.
You'll sure never see any of the news
readers on television repeat that though

Well, if you look at the last 4 or 5 months, this  past weekend was purty light.

Cold weather also. Lots of 9mm, but almost next to nothing of anything else.

Ya know, that could be a valid point, cause as a whole, most of'em can't shoot for crap.

Agreed. They do pretty well against women, children and infants in the city’s though. I wish these pricks could shoot so they would be killing each other and not a kid in bed.
