TEEN SHOT AND ANOTHER STABBED DURING TAKEOVER IN DOWNTOWN CHICAGO

Last night, teenagers in Chicago took over the downtown area, causing chaos and leaving one teen shot and another stabbed.

The “teen takeover” incident is not the first of its kind. Earlier this month, a tourist and her son were shot in the same area.

Videos began circulating on social media from bystanders and residents of the Streeterville neighborhood, showing large groups of teens running around.

According to Fox News, an 18-year-old man was stabbed in the back during an argument inside a store on North State Street. Additionally, a 15-year-old was shot and suffered a graze wound to the leg in Streeterville after gunfire erupted within a large crowd.
