CHICAGO (CBS) -- At least eight people were killed, and 41 others were
hurt in shootings across Chicago during Labor Day weekend. The ages of the victims range from 6 to 53.
In the weekend's first shooting, a 34-year-old man was shot and killed in
the 2700 block of West 38th Street in Brighton Park Friday evening.
Police said around 5:30 p.m., the victim was standing in the rear of a residence when an unknown, red-colored Jeep drove by, and someone from
inside fired shots- striking the victim.
He was shot in the armpit, taken to Mt. Sinai Hospital in critical
condition, and later pronounced dead.
Less than an hour later, a man between 19 and 24 was hurt in a shooting in
the 3800 block of South Wentworth Avenue around 6:15 p.m.
The victim was outside when three unknown offenders on foot fired shots, striking the victim. He suffered a gunshot wound to the side and was
pronounced dead, according to police.
Later in the evening, two teens were shot following a high school football
game in Woodlawn.
The shooting happened around 10:16 p.m. in the 1500 block of East 64th
Street.
Police officers arrived at the scene and found a 16-year-old girl with a gunshot wound to the foot. A 15-year-old boy also suffered a gunshot wound
to the abdomen. Both were taken to Comer Children's Hospital, where the
girl was listed in good condition, and the boy was in critical condition.
The Civilian Office of Police Accountability is investigating after
Chicago police officers fired shots at a female suspect on the Far South
Side.
Police said, in a statement, officers responded to the 9900 block of South Ewing Avenue just after 2 a.m. for a report of a person with a gun and
located a male and female in the area.
The female offender produced a firearm, and officers discharged their
weapons but did not make contact.
The female offender fled on foot, and the male was questioned by police
and released. A search for the female offender is still ongoing.
No officers were injured. However, two officers were transported to a
local hospital as a precaution. A weapon was also recovered.
The Officer(s) involved will be placed on routine administrative duties
for 30 days.
