The weekend in Chicago ended with a total of 38 people being shot, four of whom tragically lost their lives. This toll was exacerbated by a mass shooting incident that left six individuals wounded during a large street gathering on the West Side. According to HeyJackass, a website that tracks city crime data, this weekend’s shooting total was the third-lowest since 2015. The victims of these incidents spanned from 14 to 67 years old.

Sunday, August 10th, marked the second most violent day of the year, with a total of 23 individuals being shot. One particularly alarming incident took place in the early hours of the morning on North Lacrosse Avenue, where six individuals were shot during a street gathering promoted as Club JRoy. This event prompted a 10-1 police emergency, drawing officers from various parts of the city to disperse the unruly crowd of approximately 1,000 people. Videos from the scene captured confrontations between the crowd and law enforcement, including an officer being struck in the head with a liquor bottle.

The weekend’s incidents included a series of shootings across different neighborhoods in Chicago:

– On Friday, August 8th, a 25-year-old woman was shot in the buttocks in the 2500 block of East 78th Street. A 26-year-old man lost his life after being shot in the head and shoulder in a parking lot on West 79th Street. Additionally, a 35-year-old man sustained multiple gunshot wounds on West Adams Street.

– Saturday, August 9th, saw a 35-year-old concealed carry holder being shot during an attempted robbery on South Wabash Avenue. Meanwhile, two men, aged 39 and 45, were shot in separate incidents on West 13th Street.

– Sunday, August 10th, included a tragic mass shooting on North Lacrosse Avenue, where six individuals were shot, resulting in one fatality and injuries to five others. Additionally, a 34-year-old man lost his life after being shot multiple times on South Cottage Grove Avenue.

The incidents continued into Monday, August 11th, with a 14-year-old boy being shot in the back on West 29th Street and a 22-year-old man sustaining gunshot wounds on West Armitage Avenue.

It is important to note that HeyJackass data includes shootings on expressways within city limits, which are not counted by the CPD as the Illinois State Police investigates those incidents. The weekend’s totals may fluctuate as investigations progress and victims succumb to their injuries.

This comprehensive coverage of the weekend’s shootings highlights the ongoing challenges of gun violence in Chicago and underscores the need for comprehensive efforts to address this issue.
