Police: 4 dead, 4 hurt in shooting on Chicago’s South Side
Associated PressCHICAGO — An argument in a house on Chicago’s South Side erupted into gunfire early Tuesday, leaving four people dead and four more injured, police said. At a news conference Tuesday morning, Police Superintendent David Brown said three of the victims who died were female and one was male. The witness told police more gunshots rang out at about 5:45 a.m. Brown also said the police received several calls about disturbances at the residence, but did not elaborate. A database compiled by The Associated Press, USA Today and Northeastern University that tracks mass killings — defined as four or more dead, not including the perpetrator — shows Tuesday’s shooting in Chicago is the 18th mass killing, of which 17 were shootings, so far this year in the U.S. Englewood has long been one of the most violent communities in Chicago, and the city has experienced more homicides this year compared with the same period last year.
