The latest murder happened during the afternoon in the Princeton Park neighborhood on the Far South Side. Xavier Gatson, 25, was walking at 2:43 p.m. in the 200 block of West 95th Street when someone got out of a vehicle and started shooting at him, according to Chicago police and the Cook County medical examiner’s office.

The 42-year-old was shot in the chest at 9:57 a.m. in the 300 block of East 53rd Street. A witness told police she heard shots and saw the man collapse in a doorway before seeing another man between 25 and 27 years old running away on foot. The medical examiner’s office has not released details about the fatality.

In the year’s final documented shooting, two women were shot in the Austin neighborhood by someone armed with an assault weapon. At 11:49 p.m., the women, both 25 years old, were in a Ford sedan traveling west in the 5400 block of West Gladys Avenue when they were wounded by gunfire, according to Chicago police. A male fired at the vehicle, striking one in the chest and grazing the other’s head.
