Hall, of the 2800 block of West 71st Street, died at the scene, according to the medical examiner's office.

Hall was walking in an alley when Elvin Prince drove past several times and passengers in the car gave Hall "mean looks," Assistant State's Attorney Beth Novy said. One of the passengers then exited the car and shot Hall multiple times. Prince allegedly drove the car into Hall twice as he tried to escape.

Additionally, 18-year-old Juwan Williams, of the 4000 block of West Arthington Street, died Tuesday after being shot multiple times in the 3900 block of West Polk Street on May 18, authorities said.

Overall, the medical examiner's office has ruled at least 142 Chicago deaths in 2014 a homicide -- including seven people killed by police.

Additionally, the state's attorney's office filed first-degree murder charges against a speeding motorist who killed an off-duty police officer while trying to flee police even though the autopsy ruled the death an accident.





Chicago Police, which counts murders different, have ruled at least eight of the homicides as involuntary manslaughter, justified self-defense or accidents.

Must be chicagos lax gun control....

Hey, at least there were no people shot Friday.

There were shootings, no one got hit.

Wow.... That is insane. Phone Post 3.0

"Hall was walking in an alley when Elvin Prince drove past several times and passengers in the car gave Hall "mean looks," Assistant State's Attorney Beth Novy said.

"Chicago Police, which counts murders different, have ruled at least eight of the homicides as involuntary manslaughter, justified self-defense or accidents."

So, 11 people were killed, and the PD is saying that 8 of them were either:

Accidental, "oops, see, my gun went off accidentally and Deeboh was standing right in front of me."

Justified, "That mother fuck'n Deeboh was walking by and looked at me. I HAD to show him he was disrespecting me like that"

Anti violence rally in Chicago?

That's like me sitting the wife down at the table to discuss the possibility of more blowjobs. Phone Post 3.0

Is it safe to say the most repeated sentence in Chicago is "CHECK YO SELF FOOL" ?

Ahren_nhb - 

WTF is going on in Chiraq?


Englewood and some other neighborhoods should just be fenced off a la Escape from New York.


The excuses are old, tired, and unrealistic.


It's poverty. There are no jobs.


That may be true, but a company isn't going to move to an area full of violence.

They need to vote all the gun happy republicans who are in the pockets of the NRA. All this violence would just disappear then!

Another crack about my Bears and someone else might catch a bullet lol

I live in Chicago and frankly, I, like most everyone else in the city that isn't trying to make money off of the "Chiraq" bullshit is fairly tired of the coverage all of the violence is getting.

Shootings on the westside? Murders in Englewood? Next thing your going to tell me is that the animals at Brookfield Zoo continue to act like animals.

This week $50,000 (about 200 or so which were going to be given to kids) worth of Ipad's were stolen from Chicago public schools on the westside and parents have been bitching on the television news about how CPS is to blame and how horrible all of it is. That said, I've heard people all over the westside are scrambling to the corners to buy cheap Ipad's.

"No snitching" and criminal culture have so infected black community life that they have been paralyzed and have turned their neighborhoods into no-fly zones for anyone who doesn't want to become a crime victim.

Black Leadership is a major problem with this and they need to step up and start telling people they need to accept allot of the problems in their communities not blame someone/something else.

BigEyedFish -

I don't think it works like that.

The only way this violence stops is if a change in strategy occurs as people with your sentiment of "killing each other off" has been in play for decades with the result the same.

Guns legal or not in these areas makes no difference either as Chicago had the strictest gun laws in the country up until just recently and people were still killing each other in droves.

The neighborhoods where these killings have been occurring are among the poorest and fractured in out country.

No fuck are given about these neighborhoods or the people in them. Until that changes, this weekend culling will continue. Phone Post 3.0
