Chicago saw an incredibly violent holiday weekend as July Fourth saw around 88 people shot, including over a dozen killed in crimes across the city.
The Chicago Police Department (CPD) tweeted photos of guns confiscated during Sunday’s celebrations: The cache included shotguns and rifles along with a number of pistols. Reports on the total number of incidents ranged wildly from 37 to 88, but the fact remains that dozens of people were shot, with at least five children among the victims. The low-end figure from NBC 5 Chicago includes nine deaths in its 37 shootings while the Chicago Sun-times counts 14 deaths in its 88 shootings.More Related News
