SUN-TIMES MEDIA WIRE
At least 15 people were shot -- including two men who died and six people who were wounded in one chaotic Englewood incident -- within a bloody two hour stretch late Thursday into early Friday.
The first shooting occurred at 10:54 p.m. at 7900 S. Anthony Ave. In that incident, a 28-year-old man was shot in the leg, according to a South Chicago District police officer. The victim did not suffer life-threatening injuries.
At 11:15 p.m. officers responding to a call of a person shot found 30-year-old Brian Moore shot in the 6400 block of South Paulina Street, according to police.
Moore 720 E. 70th St., was pronounced dead at 1:38 a.m. at Mount Sinai Hospital Hospital, according to a spokeswoman for the Cook County Medical Examiner’s Office.
At 11:50 p.m. a 21-year-old man was standing with a group of other males in a parking lot at 7859 S. Cornell Ave. when a man and a woman approached the group. Someone in the group said an offensive comment to the woman and her companion shot the 21-year-old, who was struck once in the buttocks and taken to Jackson Park Hospital in “stable” condition, the South Chicago District officer said.
In the Bronzeville neighborhood about 12:15 a.m. a man identified by the medical examiner's office as Jermaine Streeter, 27, was shot and suffered multiple gunshot wounds. Streeter, of 3812 S. Michigan Ave., was pronounced dead at 1:04 a.m. at John H. Stroger Jr. Hospital of Cook County, the medical examiner’s office spokeswoman said.
In the Loop, a woman told police she was sitting in Millennium Park, 201 E. Randolph St., about 12:30 a.m. when two males she did not know approached her and a male friend she was with, according to a police report.
The report says that one of the suspects pointed a gun at her friend’s head first, and when she got up to “protest,’’ the suspect fired several shots at the her -- striking her once in the upper right arm.
The report said the suspects did not say anything or make any demands and they both fled the scene on foot. Police said they were not notified of the incident until 2:15 a.m. when she was being treated at Gottlieb Memorial Hospital in Melrose Park. No crime scene was found at the park, according to police.
Chaos erupted in Englewood early Friday in two related shootings that left six people wounded.
At 12:49 a.m., police responded to reports of multiple victims shot at 6607 S. Marshfield Ave., according to an Englewood District police lieutenant.
Four men in their 20s who were shot at the Marshfield address were taken to hospitals in serious-to-critical condition, according to Fire Media Affairs Director Larry Langford, who was on the scene.
Of those four, two were taken to John H. Stroger Jr. Hospital of Cook County and two were taken to Advocate Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn. Langford said three were shot in the lower extremities and the fourth was shot multiple times all over his body.
But as multiple police officers were in the area responding to the initial shooting, another shooting occurred nearby at 1640 W. 65th St., Langford said.
“Police were investigating and then somebody came by and opened fire,’’ Langford said.
The 65th Street attack left a woman with a bullet graze wound to the head and a sixth man who is in his 20s with a gunshot wound to the buttocks or lower back. The man was taken in fair condition to Mount Sinai Hospital and the woman was not hospitalized, according to Langford.
No officers were wounded, Langford said.
In another shooting -- this time outside the Far South Side Magnolia sports bar, 12217 S. Halsted St., four adults who were "unintended targets" were wounded.
Just after 1 a.m., four people were shot outside near South Halsted Street and West 122nd Street, according to police News Affairs Officer Laura Kubiak.
A 40-year-old man suffered gunshot wounds to his arm and leg; a 31-year-old woman was shot in the foot; a 30-year-old man was shot in the right hand; and a 28-year-old was shot in the right thigh, Kubiak said. Hospital information was not immediately available.
The victims were apparently the unintended targets of the shooting that began inside the lounge as a fight, Kubiak said.
Wentworth Area, Calumet Area and Belmont Area detectives are investigating the shootings.
