From Obamaville and the Chicago Tribune:
As family struggled to keep a boy from remembering the details of a shooting that claimed the life of his mother and 5-year-old brother Friday, a suspect lay in a hospital bed across the city with several gunshot wounds of his own.
Chavonne Brown and her son Sterling Sims were shot 2:30 a.m. Friday in their apartment in the 5300 block of South Winchester Avenue. The boy's 12-year-old brother witnessed the shooting from his upper bunk bed.
The younger boy was shot in the head in his bed, police said. The boys' mother was also found shot in the head on her bedroom floor....
As the family struggled to come to terms with the slayings, police said the 18-year-old man suspected in the homicides was found bleeding from at least four gunshot wounds Friday night on the West Side.
The man shot Friday night is in critical condition at Mount Sinai Hospital. Someone walked up to him in the 2800 block of West Arthington Street in the Lawndale neighborhood about 9:10 p.m. and shot him in the buttocks, neck, leg and groin, police said. http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/breaking/chi-double-homicide-suspect-shot-chicago-20130629,0,1365661.story
There's really only 3 things to say about this.
1. RIP to the people killed and prayers to their families and friends.
2. Good shooting Tex, to whoever shot the thug that killed the two.
3. The cops in Chicago will be taking their sweet old time trying to find the shooter of the thug, maybe a decade or two?
