    Nineteen people were shot in attacks across the South and West sides between about 5:20 p.m. Thursday and 1:30 a.m. Friday - including 13 people during a single 30-minute period - according to the Chicago Police Department.

    The shootings peaked between about 9:15 and 9:45 p.m. Thursday when 13 people were shot, including eight in a single incident at 79th Street and Essex Avenue about 9:30 p.m.

    Police are still trying to sort out that shooting, the second of three incidents that left multiple people wounded since 8 p.m.

    As of 4 a.m., none of the 19 people shot had died.

    Any counts on the skin color? My bet is it's 95% poor black/brown on poor black/brown.

    Chicago has been having a horrible streak of shootings for months.

    I doubt they were shooting up city hall, police stations, the courthouse, or the Dem and Repug campaign offices.

    Some of them were in the South side, so I would assume so.

    The only thing I can think of is it's an anomaly because only 19 people were shot in a day!
