"Most of our violence is gang related, much of it is narcotics gang related. They argue over turf and get into violent disputes with each other, and that's how people get hurt," Chicago Police Supt. Garry McCarthy said at a press conference last month after a weekend of shootings claimed five lives and another 16 people were injured. The numbers have become all too familiar in Chicago, as media organizations packaged homicide and shooting figures in customary roundup reports that followed weather and sports updates.
