Two people opened fire around 1:10 a.m. in the 4700 block of South Princeton Avenue and struck one person in the leg, a 60-year-old man in the arm and a 37-year-old man in the body, according to Chicago police.
Families turned out on the first day that Chicago Park District pools opened. Others had a splash at the Crown Fountain in Millennium Park. The city could reach 90 degrees for seven straight days, with very little cool down overnight.
In all, at least 72 people were hit by gunfire from Friday evening through the predawn hours of Monday, according to data collected by the Sun-Times. Eight of them died.
The neighborhoods are Austin, Garfield Park, Humboldt Park and Little Village, where about 20% of shootings occur citywide, according to city crime statistics.
