At least four people were killed and 14 others injured in a drive-by shooting in downtown Chicago, outside a nightclub on Wednesday.
The attack occurred during an album release party for local rapper Mello Buckzz.
All victims were in their 20s and 30s. The vehicle involved fled the scene, and no arrests have been made yet.
Chicago Police Superintendent Larry Snelling condemned the incident, calling it a “deplorable and cowardly” act.
On the same night, a second mass shooting on Chicago’s far South Side left four more people hospitalized.
City leaders have pledged accountability and urged community cooperation as investigations continue.
