While everyone is distracted by the Peterson case and the DNC, people keep getting shot across the city - well, they keep getting shot on the south and west sides at least. This one sounds interesting:
One man was killed and another critically injured in a shooting on the Dan Ryan Expressway that caused a vehicle to crash into a building in the South Side Chatham neighborhood, police said.
The shooting happened about 11:40 p.m. as three men in a 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee were getting on the southbound Dan Ryan Expressway using the 87th Street ramp, Illinois State Police Master Sgt. Steven Tufenkjian said. The shots were apparently fired from another vehicle.
Larry Porter, 25, of the 10000 block of South Parnell Avenue, was dead at the scene, according to officials.
And this line finishes the article:
- State police are investigating the shooting while Chicago police are investigating the crash.
