Im going to put two links at the end as I like wgn and abcs coverage the most. The gist is that yesterday night after what is sorta the kickoff to the holiday season in chicago there were two shooting. So the kickoff is the tree lighting ceremony and start of the chris kringle market in daley plaza and started at 6pm. The first one took place near the chicago theater so basically over one block and up two blocks just before 10pm. The second took place about an hour later and was about the same level on dearborn so just a block over and really less than two blocks up from the daily center. Ugh the news was so annoying as it mixed in an unsubstantiated social media post from an alderman and very little about the shooters who seemed to have gotten away despite a fair amount of arrests. Unfortunately this is the kind of violence that chicago has and theoretically is what trump tries to fix with ice even though it has little to do with immigration and much to do with people having a minimum level of dignified existence.
