Chicago shootings: At least 60 shot, 4 fatally, in Labor Day weekend violence across city

Two backyard shootings within four blocks of each other occurred a little over an hour apart early Monday on the South Side.

A 22-year-old man was standing in his backyard about 11:40 p.m. Sunday in the 9500-block of South Yale Avenue in Longwood Manor when he heard a loud noise and felt pain, according to Chicago Police.

He was shot in the face and transported to Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn, where he was listed in serious condition, police said.

Shortly after midnight, while detectives were looking into nearby trash cans and knocking on neighbors' doors, a man approached the crime scene tape looking for his "brother."
