Chicago hits 500 homicides for 2016 after deadly Labor Day weekend
Aamer Madhani, USA TODAY
CHICAGO — With a holiday weekend spate of violence that killed 13 people,
the homicide toll in the nation’s third-largest city hit 500, a grim
milestone that puts the city on track to reach a murder rate it hasn't seen
since the drug wars of the 1990s.
The Labor Day weekend murders come after police recorded 92 murders in
August, the deadliest month for Chicago since June 1993. With murders up
roughly 50% for the year, Chicago has tallied more homicides than the much
larger cities of New York and Los Angeles combined. |
