Little Village shooting victims were targeted outside church after packing meals

A group of individuals returning from packing meals at a local charity was targeted in a shooting outside a Little Village church Friday night.

According to officials from the New Life Center, three individuals were leaving the church shortly after 11 p.m. Friday when they were targeted by an assailant in a white sedan.

    Two staff members and another volunteer were all injured, and were taken to area hospitals for treatment. A fourth victim was also hospitalized, though it was unclear if the individual was just a bystander.

    According to New Life Center, a group of volunteers had taken teens to Feed My Starving Children on Friday night to pack meals for families in other countries.

    When they returned to the church, the unknown assailants opened fire before fleeing the scene in the vehicle on Pulaski.

    “This violence is heartbreaking and unacceptable,” church leaders said in a statement.

    “Our staff and Peacekeepers show up every day, often in incredibly difficult circumstances, to mentor young people, interrupt violence, build relationships, and bring hope to our neighborhoods. They put their hearts into this work because they love their community and believe that peace is possible. Our offices, youth centers, and community spaces must be safe spaces.”

    In the shooting, a 56-year-old man was shot in the leg and a 26-year-old man was shot in the foot. Both were listed in good condition, as was a 25-year-old man who was shot in the hand.

    A fourth victim, a 19-year-old man, was shot in the arm, and brought himself to a local hospital, where he was listed in good condition.
