Weekend Wrap-up
Posted on June 23, 2014
While a wet and stormy week helped keep the violence down a bit, especially on Wednesday which only saw a single shooting, the weekend devolved into the usual idiocy and rampant stupidity that Chicago is so well known for. In all 30 people were shot from noon on Friday through 6a this Monday morning resulting in the death of six (6).
A breakdown of the 30 incidents shows:
- All 6 were shot & killed
- 2 left in critical condition
- 28 dudes/2 chicks
- 30.7 y/o average age
- 7 teenagers
- 16 neighborhoods
- 4 multi-victim incidents
- 2 shot in the ass
As eluded too above, the week of 6/15 was less violent then what is typically expected this time of year with the help of numerous precipitation events (rain). The week ended with 6 killed and 48 wounded, which was one less incident when compared to the week before. One could say that’s progress.
