Via Chicago Tribune:
Four men were killed and at least 16 other people were wounded in Chicago shootings since Saturday morning, officials said.
The most recent fatal shooting was at 2:35 a.m. Sunday in the Brighton Park neighborhood, where a 19-year-old man was shot while driving in the 3900 block of South Campbell Avenue. He was driving north when someone driving the other way opened fire, shooting him multiple times. He was taken to Mount Sinai Hospital and pronounced dead.
Police said the shooting may be related to a nearby attack that occurred at the same time about a block away, in the 3900 block of South Rockwell Street. Someone in a passing gray Ford Explorer shot a 21-year-old man in the right hand. The man went to Mount Sinai Hospital in good condition.
At 11:25 p.m. Saturday, a 36-year-old man was killed in the Pullman neighborhood on the Far South Side. He was in the driver’s seat of a car in the 11200 block of South Langley Avenue when another vehicle pulled up alongside him and someone inside opened fire. The man tried to drive away but crashed into several other parked vehicles. He had been shot multiple times and was pronounced dead at the scene.
About 5:20 p.m., a 23-year-old man was shot in the 8900 block of South Justine Street in the Brainerd neighborhood. He was standing in front of a home when two people approached on foot and began firing. The man was shot multiple times in the torso and taken to the Little Company of Mary Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
He was identified as Nahmar T. Holmes, of the same block where he was killed, said the Cook County medical examiner’s office.
An earlier fatal attack happened about 2 p.m. in the 3000 block of West 63rd Street in Chicago Lawn. Two men, 27 and 26, were sitting in a parked vehicle when a group of people approached and opened fire, police said.
The 27-year-old was shot in the head and the torso, and he was pronounced dead at the scene. He was identified as Dominice Hallom, of the 11300 block of South Forest Avenue, the medical examiner’s office said.
The other man was shot in the left leg, left arm, torso and buttocks. He was taken to Advocate Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn, and his condition was stabilized.
