Nearly half the people shot were in just three police districts: Deering and Englewood on the South Side, and Chicago Lawn on the Southwest Side.
The long July Fourth weekend in Chicago began with four men shot in Chicago Lawn and ended with five people shot and a man beaten to death in an attack in Englewood.
The victims include a 15-year-old girl who was killed along with her mother in what police say was a domestic attack in Little Village.
With the long holiday weekend barely half over, at least 36 people have been shot across Chicago and five of them have died, including a 15-year-old girl.
