In the following story, reporter Peter Nickeas tried to dilute the concentration severity of the crimes by saying that they were committed “Saturday night and Sunday morning,” but 2:30 a.m. still counts as Saturday night in my book. Five, six a.m. you can count as “morning.” At least the headline writer descried the five survivors as “wounded” rather “injured,” which makes it sound as if someone suffered an accident.

Six people were shot on the South Side on Saturday night and Sunday morning, according to police.
