At least 66 people were shot and five of those victims died over the weekend in Chicago, officials said. Three teenage boys were also counted among those who were injured. The surging violence has prompted activists and some city council members to call on Gov. J. B. Pritzker, a Democrat, to call in the National Guard and declare a state of emergency. The latest fatal weekend shooting occurred when a 27-year-old male was shot in Lawndale on the West Side.
