A 23-year-old woman was killed and a 2-year-old and others injured when multiple gunmen opened fire Wednesday in broad daylight in Mayor Brandon Johnson’s Chicago.
The shooting occurred around 3:15 p.m., when multiple gunmen exited a vehicle and opened fire “in the 1200-block of West 81st Street,” ABC 7 reported.
The 23-year-old woman was shot multiple times and died after being transported to a hospital.
A 2-year-old boy was shot in the foot, a 20-year-old man was also shot in the foot, and a 62-year-old man was shot in the back.
There were “at least 50 bullet casings…scattered on the ground at the scene.”

The Chicago Sun-Times explained that 350 people were killed in Chicago January 1, 2023, through August 2, 2023.
