Chicago weekend violence: 2 mass shootings, 74 people shot, 6 murders
Chicago has its most violent weekend of the year so far
A staggering 74 people were shot in Chicago this weekend and six were killed. The violence included two mass shootings.
CHICAGO - Chicago Police Superintendent David Brown says there are too many illegal guns and too little consequences for the people who use them.
That is why, he said, the number of shootings over the weekend from Friday, June 25 through Sunday, June 27th totaled 46 incidents: 74 people shot, 6 murders.
There were two mass shootings in the city Sunday night.
At about 10:50 p.m., a crowd gathered across from a liquor store at 63rd and Artesian. Police say three males came out of an alley and started shooting, killing a woman and injuring 10 others: four women and six men. Three of the injured took themselves to hospitals.

In February 2017, an undercover investigation shook the Los Angeles acting community. Criminal charges were filed against 28 defendants linked to five casting workshops over alleged pay-to-play schemes.
A yearlong effort by the Los Angeles city attorney’s office found that these workshops had violated the
Krekorian Talent Scam Prevention Act when they charged aspiring actors to participate in auditions. Among those charged were several well-known casting professionals with credits in shows on Netflix, ABC and CBS.
That’s just one high-profile example of the scams that target people in the entertainment industry. If you’re just starting out or it’s early in your career, you need to be careful about upfront fees, guarantees of employment and really anything that feels too good to be true.
