Chinatown shooting: Bond denied for suspect who fatally shot 71-year-old man

A man accused of gunning down a 71-year-old grandfather in Chinatown appeared in court Thursday as prosecutors said they had no clue why he opened fire, other than "sometimes people just do evil things."

A 16-year-old boy was shot Saturday afternoon in Gresham on the South Side.

The teen boy was sitting in a vehicle about 6:12 p.m. in the 8600 block of South Loomis Boulevard when someone inside another vehicle opened fire, Chicago police said.

He was struck in the back and was taken to Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn, where he was stabilized, police said.

Area Two detectives are investigating.
