Chicago: At Least 13 Shot When Drive-By Shooters Open Fire

Two drive-by shooters opened fire on a group of people, wounding at least 13 in Chicago’s Princeton Park neighborhood Friday night around 11 p.m.

WLS reported that police believe both shooters were inside the same red SUV and opened fire simultaneously on a crowd of people.

NBC Chicago noted that the driver of the SUV fled the scene once the shooting stopped.

Responding officers initially found two people with gunshot wounds and later discovered a 26-year-old man who was injured but refused any medical help.

Ten others were injured and their injuries came to light after they all self-transported to the hospital.

The Chicago Sun-Times observed that 188 people have been murdered in Chicago thus far in 2026.
