A shooting at a house party early Sunday on Chicago’s South Side wounded 13 people, four of them critically, Chicago police said.
The shooting stemmed from a dispute at a the party that was being “given in memorial of a subject slain in April,” Chief of Patrol Fred Waller said. He said shots were first fired just after 12:30 a.m.
The victims range in age from 16 to 48 and suffered “different and various gunshot wounds to their bodies.”
Two people were being questioned, Waller said. One of them was arrested with a weapon, he said, while the other was wounded. Waller said police recovered a revolver.
Waller described three different shooting scenes at the residential location in the city’s Englewood neighborhood. The shooting started inside, then more shots were fired as people began spilling out of the house. He said shots were also fired at a third place in the vicinity.
He described the shooting as an “isolated incident.”

“The overall crime rate in Englewood is 255% higher than the national average. For every 100,000 people, there are 26.8 daily crimes that occur in Englewood. In Englewood you have a 1 in 11 chance of becoming a victim of any crime”
Great job, Rahm Emanuel.
Beto O’Rourke is %100 right. We must take away all registered legal guns from those privileged white heterosexual males. As we see from this tragedy, these WHITE MAGA hat wearing males are completely unhinged.
Maybe Chicago should apply their infamously strict gun control to criminals.
