Chicago saw a spate of shootings and a fatal stabbing overnight, a more typical night of violence in the city after a 60-hour lull that ended early Friday.
The 2½ day streak without a shooting in the city ended about 1:40 a.m. Friday when a 47-year-old South Side man was shot in a robbery over a snowblower and cash.
Friday night and early today, two people were shot to death and a third fatally stabbed, according to police.
The story actually lists 3 shot to death and another stabbed, but when has accuracy ever mattered to the media?
The Crystal Ball Unit missed all four of these, but the "Innie-Outtie Task Force" has determined that one shooting was inside, two outside and the stabbing was a "half-and-half" since he was stabbed at a card game but ran outside to expire.
