At least 32 people were wounded — four of them fatally — in gun violence incidents within city limits this weekend, including a 15-year-old boy who was shot to death Sunday in Wentworth Gardens on the South Side. Devon Ward was in a courtyard about 2:44 a.m. in the 3800 block of South Princeton Avenue when someone opened fire, Chicago police and the Cook County medical examiner’s office said. He was hit in the torso and was pronounced dead at the University of Chicago Medical Center.

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
We'll take one step at a time, and the first is necessarily - given the political realities - very modest. We'll have to start working again to strengthen the law, and then again to strengthen the next law and again and again. Our ultimate goal, total control of handguns, is going to take time. The first problem is to slow down production and sales. Next is to get registration. The final problem is to make possession of all handguns and ammunition (with a few exceptions) totally illegal. — Pete Shields, founder of Handgun Control, Inc., New Yorker Magazine, June 26, 1976, pg. 53 |
