49 people shot in Chicago in Memorial Day gun violence

At least 89 arrests were made and 216 guns seized during the holiday weekend.

Despite stay-at-home orders firmly in place to blunt the spread of the coronavirus pandemic, the Memorial Day weekend saw an old scourge reemerge with a vengeance on the streets of Chicago: gun violence.

At least 49 people were shot, 10 fatally, between 6 p.m. on Friday and 11:59 p.m. on Monday, according to data the Chicago Police Department released Tuesday to ABC News.

Police Superintendent David Brown said three of the shooting victims were juveniles, including one who was killed.
