At least two people were killed and at least 18 others have been wounded in shootings across the city since Friday evening.
The most recent fatal shooting happened early Saturday in a Chicago Lawn neighborhood apartment on the Southwest Side, where a 50-year-old woman was seriously injured and her son was killed in a domestic-related incident, police said.
About 1:15 a.m. Saturday, a 47-year-old man got into an argument with the mother and son, left the apartment, returned with a gun and shot both in the chest, police said.
Adarrius Thompson, 27, was dead at the scene, according to the Cook County Medical Examiner’s office. He lived in the block where the shooting happened, authorities said.
His mother was taken to Mount Sinai Hospital in serious condition, police said.
The exact relationship between the 47-year-old -- who is not in police custody -- and the two others was not immediately known, police said.
