Several people were shot and killed on Chicago’s train system early Monday morning.
Four people were killed during a shooting on Chicago’s train system, known as the “L”, on Monday morning, according to police.
Just before 5:30 a.m. local time, police received a call that three people had been struck by bullets on a train at the Forest Park CTA (Chicago Transit Authority) Blue Line station. Forest Park police rushed to the scene and found four shooting victims. Three were pronounced dead on the scene, and the fourth later died at Loyola University Medical Center in Maywood, Illinois.
The suspected shooter fled the scene, but Chicago police were able to track down the person using a description from surveillance footage. The suspect was taken into police custody on a CTA Pink Line train in Chicago. A firearm was recovered, but it was not immediately clear if it was the same gun used in the shooting.
