CHICAGO (WLS) — Chicago shootings over the holiday weekend have left more than 71 shot, 11 fatally, police said.

The latest shootings attacked groups of teenagers.

Gunfire erupted in the West Garfield Park as three teens were standing on a front porch in the 3800-block of West Gladys Avenue when someone in a dark-colored car opened fire, police said.

A 17-year-old girl was rushed to the hospital in critical condition with a gunshot wound to the right eye. A 17-year-old girl was shot in the leg and buttocks and a 19-year-old man was shot in the arm and both were transported to hospitals in good condition.

Just a few hours earlier and less than two-miles away, police said a 14-year-old boy walking down the block in the 100-block of North Francisco Avenue when an unknown gunman opened fire on him. He was struck in the right arm and right leg and transported to a hospital in fair condition.

On the South Side, 32-year old father of four Brian Ross, was gunned down along with another men during a large Father’s Day gathering at Smith Park in the Roseland community.

Relatives said he was not the intended target.

“They literally stopped where they were at, open fired on them, didn’t care about the kids being around or nothing. And, by the grace of God, no kids get hit,” Kandace Ross, the victim’s husband, said. “They didn’t care about nothing or nobody because there were kids out there. There were women out there, there were grandmas, anybody. They just came and just shot it up just so they can, I don’t know, brag about it.”

Police are looking into if social media played a role in the attack.

The shootings took place on the West Side, in Lincoln Park and on the South Side, where violence at a Father’s Day gathering in a park left two men dead.

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson said on Monday that every loss of life is heartbreaking.

The weekend violence touched many other parts of the city. A shooting in Lincoln Park near the zoo left five people injured. On the West Side, two teens were shot, one of them killed near Garfield Park.

“Every time I read and hear about another life that is lost because of violence, my heart breaks,” Johnson said. “Fifteen-year-olds, 14-year-olds, you all know I’m raising children in Chicago. It hurts.”

There was another shooting on the CTA Red Line at a station in Chinatown. And, in River North, home security video showed a man being chased down and shot on Erie Street.

Johnson would not say if anything specific in the policing strategy needs to change to stem the violence, which he says is a problem he inherited.

“We have a layered, multi-tiered approach. And so, yes, it requires some policing strategies that are more strategic and smart. But, everybody knows that if your only strategy is policing, that is the old way of doing things,” Johnson said.

Relatives of Brian said he was not the intended target, but police said they aren’t sure, and their investigation is ongoing.
