At least 32 people were shot, four of them fatally, during Easter weekend in Mayor Brandon Johnson’s (D) Chicago.
ABC 7 reported that the weekend’s first fatal shooting occurred Friday, when a 29-year-old man was shot in a drive-by incident in a parking lot “in the 800-block of 87th Street.”
Police believe the 41-year-old was shot by someone who knew him, but no other details on the possible shooter were given.
Five females were shot on Easter Sunday at 1:00 a.m. The Associated Press noted that this shooting occurred when “an unknown assailant fired multiple shots toward them and fled the scene.”
The Chicago Sun-Times pointed out that 103 people were killed in Chicago January 1, 2024, through March 31, 2024.
