In another sad turn of events, early on Sunday, authorities discovered a man who had been shot dead on South Leamington Avenue.

The specifics surrounding this shooting incident remain unclear.

Later in the evening, around 8:15 p.m. on South Payne Drive, an argument took a violent turn. After the argument, an individual drew a firearm and discharged it, targeting a group that included a 16-year-old, two 18-year-olds, and a 53-year-old man.

Regrettably, one of the 18-year-olds suffered injuries that he could not recover from.

The Sun-Times underscored a concerning statistic, noting that, from the start of 2023 up to August 13, a staggering 372 individuals have been gunned down in Chicago.

This raises significant questions about the safety and leadership of the city and underscores the need for effective solutions to curb the violence.
