A mass shooting in Washington Park that killed two people and wounded seven was likely caused by “a personal conflict with gang affiliations,” Chicago’s top cop said Wednesday as investigators continued to piece together what happened.
An argument between two groups escalated into an exchange of gunfire around 7:45 p.m. at 5531 S. King Drive, police said. At least 43 shell casings were recovered, and Chicago Police Supt. David Brown said an automatic weapon was likely used in the attack.
