At least:
- A 22-year-old man died in a long-term care hospital on Wednesday eight months after he was shot on the city's Far South Side, authorities said.
Eight months later? Damn, that's going to throw a wrench in things.
- Two men were shot dead and at least five others wounded in several separate overnight shootings across the South Side, Chicago police said.
And then the ever popular "death investigation" waiting for an upgrade:
- The badly decomposed body of a woman was discovered this morning near railroad tracks in the Gresham neighborhood on the South Side, police said.
