Five people were killed, including a pregnant woman, and at least 38 more were wounded in shootings across the city between Friday evening and Monday morning, police said.

Parasha M. Beard and a 26-year-old man were sitting in a car parked in the 8700 block of South Marquette when another vehicle pulled alongside them and a gunman with dreadlocks opened fire, according to Chicago Police and the Cook County medical examiner’s office. The woman was shot in the neck, and the man suffered gunshot wounds to the neck and chest.

You are still safer in down town Manhattan or a mall in Minnesota, than in Chicago on a slow weekend.

Calling all cars, calling all cars. Be on the lookout for a Man With Dredlocks. This individual is wanted for murder and should be considered armed and extremely dangerous.

Intelligence reports that he may be in a car.

That is all.

Heck, you’re probably safer in downtown Kabul, Afghanistan than the south side of Chicago.

Geez, I grew up less than a mile from 87th and Marquette. Wasn’t all that great neighborhood forty years ago.

Wonder if it was safer back in the days Al Capone? At least everyone was armed so a person could defend oneself.
