7 hospitalized after mass shooting in Back of the Yards neighborhood, police say
Seven people were hospitalized following another mass shooting Friday night in Chicago, this time on the city's Southwest Side. It happened after 11 p.m. in the 4800 block of South Justine Street in the Back of the Yards neighborhood. Chicago police said officers responded to a call of multiple people shot. Preliminary reports indicated that two unknown men approached the victims on foot, pulled out guns, and shot into a crowd of people who were standing outside, hitting the seven victims. A 27-year-old woman was hit in the left leg, a 21-year-old woman was hit in the right thigh, and a 21-year-old man was hit in the right quad and right foot. They were taken to Mt. Sinai Hospital in serious condition. Four others were taken to the University of Chicago Medical Center. A 29-year-old man was shot in the left arm and is listed in serious condition.

That's when 4 people were killed and 14 others were wounded in a shooting outside a River North nightclub, where an album release party for Chicago rapper Mello Buckzz occurred. Two other mass shootings followed in less than 24 hours. Four people were wounded in a mass shooting early Thursday in the Riverdale neighborhood.

Celebrating the U.S. in Canada During Turmoil in the Two Countries' Relations
The annual Fourth of July party hosted by the U.S. ambassador to Canada on the park-size grounds of his official residence has long been one of Ottawa's biggest social events. But after months of President Trump belittling Canada's viability as a nation and threatening to use economic chaos to force its annexation as the 51st state, the idea of gathering to celebrate the United States in Canada's capital was, well, a bit awkward this year. I went down to Lornado, the residence, late Friday afternoon to see if the boycotts by Canadians of American-made goods and travel to the United States would extend to the party marking the country's national holiday. (I attended as an accredited journalist, not as an invited guest, and the only hospitality I accepted was two glasses of water.) The turnout was decidedly smaller than in past years, and the seating and food stations were somewhat scaled down. Many guests who have attended in past years told me they estimated the crowd was about half the usual size, though there were nevertheless a substantial number of people. Want all of The Times?
