in Baltimore and Chicago
Apparently no police or white people are to blame, so there won’t be any
protest marches or riots.
It’s the deadliest month Baltimore has seen in more than 15 years. More
than two dozen shootings over the holiday weekend alone have city police
working around the clock.
Now, leaders hope community members come forward to help stop the
violence.
From West Baltimore, to the East Side, Govans, to Reservoir Hill–a
spike in weekend violence is plaguing all parts of the city. Over the
Memorial Day Weekend alone– city police report 28
Baltimore Police say they responded to 6 shootings on Friday night, 7 on
Saturday, 5 on Sunday and 10 by night fall on Monday.
One of those include a double shooting in which a 9-year-old boy was
found shot in the leg and a man who suffered a grazed wound to his head.
Investigators are running down strong leads in many of these shootings
and are pleading with witnesses to help.
Investigators have just released surveillance video of a person of
interest in one of the latest homicides. That murder happened along Ducatel
Street in the middle of the afternoon right across the street from a busy
park.
They ought to elect more Democrats to help stop this. Meanwhile, in Obama’s
hometown:
Twelve people were killed and at least 43 — including a 4-year-old girl
— were wounded in shootings across Chicago this Memorial Day weekend,
police said.
The 4-year-old, identified by her family as Jacele Johnson, was shot
about 8 p.m. Friday in the West Englewood neighborhood. She and her 17-year-
old cousin Romare Wilson were inside an SUV in the 7000 block of South
Justine when another vehicle pulled up and someone inside opened fire,
according to their family and Chicago Police.
The girl was shot in the head and taken to Comer Children’s Hospital in
critical condition, authorities said. She has since been upgraded to fair
condition, a hospital spokeswoman said Monday morning.
The teen was shot in the chest and grazed by a bullet in the neck. He
was in serious condition at Advocate Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn. A 15
-year-old girl standing on a sidewalk nearby was shot in the forehead and
was taken to Stroger Hospital, where her condition stabilized, police said.
The weekend’s most recent fatal shooting happened Monday night in the
Austin neighborhood on the West Side, police said. About 7:50 p.m., a 17-
year-old boy was shot in the back and the leg in the 4900 block of West Erie
, police said. He was taken to Mount Sinai Hospital, where he died. The Cook
County medical examiner’s office could not confirm the death Monday night.
Obviously, the GOP Congress needs to pay a price for this. |
