Shooting rampage in Chicago and Evanston ends with suspect dead

A man named Jason Nightengale randomly killed three people in Chicago, wounded several others, shot a woman at an IHOP in Evanston, and got into a shootout with police before he was shot and killed Saturday night, police said.

Her 15-year-old daughter, Damia Renee Smith, was in the back seat when Nightengale randomly shot her.

"I am numb. I don’t feel whole," said Hammond.

The Morgan Park High School sophomore loves to dance. Now, she’s in critical condition at Comer Children’s Hospital.

She has a long road to recovery, which is why the family created a GoFundMe account.

"I would have never thought in a million years that I’d be sitting here doing this," said Hammond.
