Chicago saw one of its deadliest weekends of the year, with 12 people killed and another 45 wounded by gunfire, including at least five children 15 or younger.
Nine of those killed were shot in a 12-hour span from Saturday night into early Sunday. Five people were shot during a drifting caravan in Brighton Park, three of them fatally. Among the children wounded across the city were a 12-year-old boy, a 13-year-old girl, a 14-year-old boy and two 15-year-old boys.
