Ten people were shot between Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning on the city's South and West Sides, including a man who died this morning after being shot on the Lower West Side and a 12-year-old girl who survived a gunshot wound on the West Side Saturday night.
The girl was standing on a sidewalk in the 500 block of North Springfield Avenue in East Garfield Park about 10:30 p.m. Saturday when she was shot in the left foot, police said. It's not clear exactly what the circumstances were that led up to the shooting, police said. She's in good condition at Mount Sinai Hospital, police said.
The girl's family didn't cooperate with the investigation, according to police.

Hmmmm. 12 year old girl standing on a corner at 10:30 at night? Sure she’s going to get her some skittles.
bogus story...guns are illegal in Chitown.
“The girls family didn’t cooperate”........
“12-year-old girl among 10 shooting victims”
Impossible. Chicago has a “no guns” ban on firearm ownership. How could this be???????????
I do feel bad for the kids that get shot as MOST OF THE TIME, they are innocent victims. Why are these young kids still on the streets/sidewalks at 10:30 at night?
Sounds like a "snitches get stitches" neighborhood.
“a man who died this morning after being shot on the Lower West Side”
Just were on the body is the Lower West Side?
Man was shot on the Lower West Side.
Does that mean he was shot in the butt?
What kind of parent allows a 12-year old girl out on the streets at 10:30 at night?
That really is one of the worst places to get shot.
LOL!!!!!!
Justice for Saint Skittles of Sanford!
ChiCongo - what do you expect? Normal evening. Have to get the guns away from legal citizens so street gangs can’t steal them. See, that’s the gun problem. /sarc
No, that would be the lower South side where all the asses are located.
None.
Ya, that jumped out at me too. Why in the heck would you NOT cooperate with police, if your child was shot? Assuming your child was an innocent victim of a shooting, why in the heck would you avoid cooperating with police?????
Notice it said “family”, not parentS??
