Three teens shot in drive-by on South Side
Three male teenagers were seriously injured Monday afternoon in a drive-by shooting that police say was in retaliation for a shooting on Sunday.
The male victims were shot in the 1300 block of West 47th Street about 4:20 p.m., according to police News Affairs Officer Tom Polick.
A Deering Police District captain said the teens were on the sidewalk in front of a laundromat when an occupant inside a gray or silver Chevrolet Impala fired shots.
"The shooting was retaliation for a shooting yesterday [Sunday]," the captain said. The shooting was gang-related, the captain said.
Fire Media Affairs Director Larry Langford said the teens were seriously injured and two suffered gunshot wounds to the torso, Langford said.
The injured males were taken to Provident Hospital of Cook County, University of Chicago Comer Children’s Hospital and John H. Stroger Jr. Hospital of Cook County, Langford said.
Wentworth Area detectives are investigating.
You just know it was a pickup truck (probably extended cab) filled with overall wearing hillbillies and blasting Garth Brooks with full bass.
Can't you see the obvious connection?
