One woman is dead and eight more women were injured in a mass shooting Sunday morning in North Lawndale, according to Chicago police.
A 31-year-old woman was shot in the left leg and forearm, and a 30-year-old woman was shot twice in the right shoulder and twice in the right arm. A 24-year-old woman was shot in the right wrist, and police said a 20-year-old woman was shot in the right thigh. Police said the four women were transported to Stroger Hospital in good condition.
Alderwoman Monique Scott, who represents the 24th ward in North Lawndale, called the shooting “heartbreaking.” She said police told her the women were at a luau party, and that a man yelled “I got you” before he started shooting. She added that some of the victims are from North Lawndale, but police believe that not all of them are.
She encouraged anyone who was involved or impacted by the shooting to attend victim services outreach tomorrow at Deliverance Temple Church, located at 1457 South Komensky Avenue. “This definitely has to stop in any and all communities,” Scott said. “We live in a world where people are not loving one another and so those are the effects of not being loved or not loving yourself or one another.”“Our hearts are with the family and loved ones of the victim who was killed,” police said in a statement. “We are also walking alongside those injured in this shooting and those who were present and witnessed this reprehensible act of violence.
