Another violent weekend in Chicago despite police saying shootings, homicides are down

It was another violent weekend in the city of Chicago with 27 people wounded in shootings and six people killed — including a 5-month-old girl.

CHICAGO - A teenager was charged with murder in the fatal drive-by shooting of a man last May in Chicago's Albany Park neighborhood.

The 17-year-old is accused of shooting and killing 37-year-old Michael Conrad who was sitting in a car around 7:45 p.m. in the 4400 block of North Hamlin Avenue, police said.

Conrad was taken to Illinois Masonic Medical Center where he was pronounced dead. A 33-year-old woman was also in the car during the shooting but was not injured, police said.
