From FOX News:
13 people were shot at a Chicago house party honoring a man killed earlier this year
A Chicago house party devolved into chaos when a dispute led to the shootings of 13 people — possibly at random, police said.
The 13 victims range from 16 to about 48 years old, said Fred Waller, chief of the Chicago Police Bureau of Patrol.
Four of the victims — including the 16-year-old — are hospitalized in critical condition. The other victims are in stable condition, Waller said.
And not just one person shooting:
Police said shots were fired in three different locations.
“Shots were fired within the residence, which caused everyone to start to leave,” Waller said.
As partygoers fled the home, police believe one of them opened fire outside, police said.
“Then a vehicle was driving down the street. One of the people also who left the residence fired upon this vehicle,” Waller said. “So we had three different scenes, all within a close proximity.”
Chicago has some of the most draconian gun laws of any city in the nation. Guns are basically illegal. How's that working out for you. Thanks to the website Hey Jackass (Illustrating Chicago Values) we can see that the year-to-date butcher's bill is as follows:
Year to Date
Shot & Killed: 449
Shot & Wounded: 2231
Total Shot: 2680
Total Homicides: 501
Nice place to raise a family. I do not regret leaving all large cities. Seattle has some fun stuff going on and planning a trip down in January sometime but live there again? No.
