Drive-by gunman injures 7 near St. Sabina; 50+ rounds fired at crowd ignoring dispersal orders

A tragic incident occurred early Saturday near St. Sabina Church at 78th and Throop in Chicago, where a drive-by gunman opened fire on a crowd, resulting in seven people being injured. The chaotic scene saw at least 50 shell casings scattered on the street as Chicago police struggled for over an hour to disperse the noncompliant crowd before the shooting took place.

Around 12:30 a.m., officers arrived at the 7800 block of South Throop to break up the large gathering, but their repeated requests and orders went unheeded. It wasn’t until 1:44 a.m. that a CPD supervisor gave the order to start making arrests, emphasizing the need for immediate action as the crowd showed no signs of cooperation.

Minutes later, a gunman in a passing vehicle opened fire on the crowd, causing injuries to seven individuals, all between the ages of 17 and 19. The victims were taken to various hospitals across the city, with some in fair condition and others in more serious states.

The shooter and the vehicle used in the attack were not described by police at the scene, but an officer estimated that around fifty shell casings were left along a half-block of 78th Street near St. Sabina Academy. St. Sabina Church, led by Fr. Michael Pfleger, is known for its efforts in promoting peace and addressing issues of violence in the community. The church regularly hosts gun turn-in events, allowing individuals to surrender firearms in exchange for incentives.

This unfortunate incident serves as a reminder of the ongoing challenges faced in Chicago’s neighborhoods and the importance of community engagement in addressing issues of violence and safety. As investigations continue, the community must come together to support those affected and work towards creating a safer environment for all residents.
