Chicago plagued by hundreds of multiple shootings - chicagotribune.com:
"The vast majority of shootings in Chicago involve just one or two victims, but data collected by the Tribune show an alarming number of shootings in which sprayed gunfire hits more than one person.
Of 2,853 people shot in the city since Jan. 1, 2012, there have been 89 shootings involving three victims, according to the Tribune data.
In the same period there were 31 incidents in which four people were shot, and nine incidents in which five people were shot.
The tally includes homicide victims.
Police and other experts were hard-pressed Friday to recall a shooting with so many victims, although shootings involving nine victims happened on the South Side in 2009 and 2010."
