The River North Residents Association says what Near North Side residents are experiencing has been commonplace in many other Chicago communities.
Police say the 38-year-old man was driving southbound on LaSalle when a black Jeep approached and a male suspect fired four shots into the victim's vehicle. Video shows the front windshield shot out. River North is no stranger to violence. Two weeks ago, a 36-year-old man died after being stabbed in River North and driving a few blocks until his car stopped on the Magnificent Mile.
Long warm holiday weekends often bring a spike in crime. Last year, 59 were wounded and six were killed in Chicago on Labor Day Weekend. So far this weekend, 34 people were hurt and six were killed. As for Saturday night's shooting, no one is in custody. It is unclear if the shooting was intentional or random.
