Nine People Shot In Multiple Shootings Within Two Hours In Chicago

Nine people were shot in Chicago on Sunday, all within two hours, according to police.

In one incident, though details are scarce, a 20-year-old man was dropped off at St. Bernard’s Hospital and Health Care Center with a gunshot wound to the head.

The man was dropped off around 5 pm, and the person who dropped him off left before he or she could be identified. The 20-year-old died at the hospital a short time later.

In another incident, which occurred after 5 pm, a 15-year-old boy, who was standing on the sidewalk in the South Shore neighborhood, was struck in the leg during a drive-by shooting. He was then taken to the hospital, where he remains in good condition.

Less than 45 minutes later, three people were shot while they were sitting in a car in the first block of East 83rd Street in Chatham. According to the Chicago Tribune, a 25-year-old woman was grazed in the chest, a 29-year-old man was hit in the left arm, and a 34-year-old man had a graze wound to the head. However, they are all in good condition.

By 6:30, a 53-year-old man was hit in the shoulder after another man opened fire on the 4300 block of South Wentworth Ave in Fuller Park. A 20-year-old was struck in the calf in that incident, and he is currently in fair condition.

A little more than 10 minutes later, a 66-year-old man was shot in the head in the 6100 block of South Bishop Street in Englewood. He was then taken to a local hospital where he later died. A 54-year-old man was also shot in that incident, but he is in good condition after only being shot in the leg.

No arrests have been made, according to the publication.
