Happy weekend in Obamaville!
Via Chicago Tribune:
A teen was shot to death and at least 14 other people, including a 12-year-old boy, were wounded in shootings between Friday afternoon and Saturday morning.
The most recent shooting was a homicide that happened about 4:10 a.m. in the West Garfield Park neighborhood, and the boy killed was the seventh person shot in a few-block area of the West Garfield Park and Lawndale neighborhoods.
A 16-year-old boy was pronounced dead at Mount Sinai Hospital. Police had a difficult time finding the boy because the 911 caller gave a location of Jackson Boulevard and Pulaski Road but the boy was found in an alley about half a block west of Pulaski just north of the boulevard.
The boy was able to give his name and said, “Please don’t let me die,” according to police.
