Shooting Incident in River North District Under Investigation

Chicago police are once again faced with investigating a shooting in the bustling River North nightlife district, marking the second weekend in a row of such incidents.

The most recent victim, a 39-year-old man, was found in critical condition after sustaining multiple gunshot wounds in the 300 block of West Ontario around 12:39 a.m. on Sunday. The man was hit in the mouth, back, and side by bullets.

Authorities discovered shell casings both in a nearby lot and inside a vehicle on the premises, leading them to believe that the victim was targeted by an assailant in a vehicle.

Due to his condition, the victim was unable to provide details about the attack. This incident follows a shooting from the previous weekend, where a 25-year-old man was shot during an altercation outside a nightclub in the same vicinity.

So far this year, the Near North Side has seen a total of ten individuals being shot, including a man who was shot by Chicago police after allegedly threatening officers with a knife. Comparatively, by this time last year, the area had witnessed eight shootings, one of which involved a Chicago police officer.

Recent statistics for shootings on the Near North Side as of May 18 in previous years are as follows:
2023: 7
2022: 15
2021: 7
2020: 4
2019: 8

The River North neighborhood has experienced a total of six shootings this year. Here is a comparison of year-to-date shooting totals in recent years:
2024: 3
2023: 5
2022: 8
2021: 4
2020: 0
2019: 4
