Mafia Spirit Over Chicago Raging With Murders Piling Up

Chicago is infamous for organized crime—and so is Satan. Al Capone and John Dillinger may be dead and gone, but the mafia spirit that motivated these notorious gangsters’ dirty deeds in the Windy City is alive and well.

Mafia and death go hand and hand—and death tolls are rising in Chicago.

At least 10 people were shot in recent weeks during two separate mass shootings in different parts of Chicago, authorities said, prompting some lawmakers to shake their heads as violent crime in the city continues to soar, according to Fox News.

The Chicago Police Department said the Gresham neighborhood, where shootings occurred just after midnight, has seen multiple shootings this year.

There have been 1,688 shootings in Chicago this year through Sunday, Fox News reports, an 11% percent jump from the same time frame last year. Chicago had 284 murders as of Sunday.
