Seven hours later and just a mile away, two men were shot in apparent retaliation, one of them fatally, by a man who knocked on their door, police said.
The revenge shooting was part of a burst of violence that killed three people in all and wounded 17 others overnight in Chicago, a toll usually seen on weekends. Nine of the people shot were in the Englewood neighborhood on the South Side.
"What is this?" asked a woman as she came upon the Chatham shooting scene. "What is the world coming to?"
The three men were shot as they stood near 79th Street and Langley Avenue around 3:10 p.m. Thursday, police said. Two men got out of a maroon van and began firing, then sped off, police said.
