What they're saying:
FOX Chicago spoke to the cousin of one of the victims who died. She described his last moments and her frustration with the ongoing violence.
"They said he was gone. We talked to one officer who tried to save him. He said that when he got to him, he was on his stomach. He tried to turn him over to help him, but there was no saving," said Shy Jackson.
"Someway, somehow they’re getting these guns in here and their guns are better than the police guns, and it’s ridiculous. Y’all need to figure out a way to control this gun violence."
What's next:
No arrests have been announced. Area Four detectives are investigating.
