CHICAGO - Ten people were shot, one of them fatally, Tuesday in Chicago.
The day’s lone fatal attack claimed the life of local rapper FBG Duck and left two others wounded in the Gold Coast.
They were standing on the sidewalk when a pair of vehicles pulled up, with two gunmen stepping out of each to open fire, Deputy Chief Daniel O’Shea said at a news conference at the scene.
The shooting happened about 4:37 p.m. in the first block of East Oak Street, he said.
FBG Duck, whose name is Carlton Weekly, was struck multiple times and taken to Northwestern Memorial Hospital, where he was pronounced dead about half an hour later, according to a police source and the Cook County medical examiner’s office. He was 26 years old.
Another man, 36, was taken to the same hospital in serious condition with gunshot wounds to his back and side, Chicago police said. A 26-year-old woman sitting in a parked vehicle was shot in her hand. She was taken to St. Joseph Hospital, where her condition stabilized.
In non-fatal shootings, a 23-year-old man was wounded after being shot in Chicago Lawn on the Southwest Side.
About 10:40 p.m., he was standing on the sidewalk in the 5900 block of South Campbell Avenue when he heard shots and felt a pain, police said. He was struck in the right leg and taken to the University of Chicago Medical Center in good condition.
About an hour prior, a 43-year-old man was shot in Austin on the West Side.
He was shot in the abdomen about 9:45 p.m. in the 1000 block of North Long Avenue, police said. He was taken to Stroger Hospital in serious condition.
The circumstances of the shooting are unknown because the man would not cooperate with officers, police said.
