Five men were killed and at least 18 others were wounded in shootings across Chicago since Friday night, police said.
The most recent fatal shooting was a double homicide that left another man injured Sunday afternoon in the Back of the Yards neighborhood on the South Side, police said.
The three were shot near the 5300 block of South May at 3:42 p.m. during a possible drive-by, police said.
A 24-year-old shot in the chest and a 29-year-old shot in the back were both dead at the scene, police said. The Cook County medical examiner’s office could not confirm the fatalities Sunday night.
The third man, 25, was shot in both legs and his right arm, police said. He was in serious condition at an unknown hospital. More details on the shooting were not known late Sunday night.
Early Sunday morning, a 34-year-old man was fatally shot while driving in Austin on the West Side.
