The first shooting of 2017 happened at 1:05 a.m. Sunday, when two men were taken to the hospital after one man was shot in the chest and the other in the back in a drive-by, according to the Chicago Police Department.
Three men were killed in the shootings. Of those shot, five victims were women and three of the victims were minors.
