HAPPY EASTER: Only 34 Shot in Gun-Free Chicago!
Twenty-three were shot during just a seven hour period between Saturday night and early Sunday morning, reports the Chicago Sun-Times.
The lone death over the weekend happened early Sunday morning. One man shot at two other men, one of whom succumbed to wounds on the head and neck later at Mount Sinai Hospital, according to authorities.
A 14 year-old boy was shot after two males came up to him midnight Sunday. They fired at him and a bullet hit the boy in the arm. He was taken to a hospital and is said to be in stable condition.
Homicides have dropped almost 10 percent in 2017 when compared to 2016 and shootings have also gone down about 13 percent.
“There’s not room for celebration yet, but I am encouraged by the numbers that we saw,” Chicago Police Superintendent Eddie Johnson said about the statistics. (RELATED:Chicago Judge Gunned Down In Shooting)
