Eleven people were shot, one fatally, Friday into Saturday morning in Mayor Lori Lightfoot’s (D) Chicago.
According to the Chicago Sun-Times, six people were shot in one attack at 12:15 a.m. Saturday when a gunman walked into “an establishment” and opened fire.
One of the wounded individuals was in serious condition after being shot in the abdomen.
The weekend’s first fatality occurred around 3 a.m. Saturday, when a 47-year-old man “in the 1300 block of West 87th Street” was chased down by a gunman and shot in the head.
Seventeen people were shot, three fatally, last weekend in Mayor Lightfoot’s Chicago, and 40 were shot, six fatally, over the weekend prior to that.
