Three people were killed, including two 16-year-olds, and sixteen others injured in shootings across the city between late Saturday morning and early Sunday morning, police said.
The fatal shootings occurred near Pulaski Road about two miles apart.
The first was about 11:45 p.m. Saturday a few blocks east of Pulaski in the 2300 block of N. Springfield Avenue in the Logan Square neighborhood on the Northwest Side. Three people were shot, two fatally, after someone on a sidewalk fired several shots toward a car, police said.
A 21-year-old man, the driver of the car, was pronounced dead at Advocate Illinois Masonic Medical Center. He had been shot in the head. A 16-year-old boy also died at that hospital after he suffered a back wound and a grazed cheek.
A third person, 18, is in good condition at Norwegian American Hospital. He was shot in the hand.
The Cook County medical examiner’s office was notified of the two deaths but wouldn’t release other information, including the identities of the victims.
The second fatal shooting was south of there, about 1:15 a.m. Sunday in the 900 block of North Karlov Avenue, a few blocks west of Pulaski in the Humboldt Park neighborhood on the West Side. A 16-year-old boy was shot in the head and taken to Mount Sinai Hospital, police said. Police had responded to a call of a person shot there and found the boy wounded.
