CHICAGO -- At least 35 people have been shot, five fatally, in weekend violence across Chicago, police said.

A man was shot and killed after an argument Sunday morning in West Garfield Park on the West Side. The man, 57, was arguing with someone in the 400-block of South Pulaski Road about 4:45 a.m. when he was shot multiple times throughout the body, Chicago police said. He was pronounced dead at the scene, police said.

A 17-year-old girl was found shot early Sunday morning in Lawndale on the West Side. The teen was found in the rear of a house in the 3600-block of West Douglas Boulevard about 1:10 a.m. with gunshot wounds to both of her legs, Chicago police said.

A man was fatally shot Saturday night in Chicago Lawn on the South Side. Officers responding to the shooting found Alexis Daniel Velazquez Guadarrama, 26, on the ground with a gunshot wound to the chest in the 6200-block of South Francisco Avenue just after 11:30 p.m., Chicago police and the Cook County medical examiner's office said. He was pronounced dead at the scene, police said.

Last weekend, one person was killed and 16 people were wounded in gun violence incidents across the city.

Guns don’t kill people- criminals AND planned parenthood kill people

As President Trump said yesterday, 18 months and no American soldiers killed in Afghanistan when he was President. Democrat run cities are worse every weekend.

Yeah, but it would be so racist of them if they don’t re elect their moronic black mayor. So what if citizens are being murdered every day of the week? The real problem is people not liking a mayor because she’s black or something. Just ask Lori.

Maybe in Chicago a Sunday is not part of the weekend. How else do you expect Libs to reduce weekend crime?

They need to get those numbers up! Only 14.28% shoot to kill ration.

Let’s see. This week Lori Lightbrain will be blaming the Cub Scouts for this weeks slaughter. And Joe Birdbrain will be blaming white gun owners.

Why does the statistic come out on Sunday morning, missing the rest of the weekend?
