CHICAGO – A 72-year-old man waiting for a ride to his dialysis treatment has been shot and killed outside his home on Chicago’s South Side.

A witness reported hearing gunfire and then found the man on the ground with several gunshot wounds.
Police believe robbery may have been the motive.
Strickland died before he could be taken to a hospital.

I don't think Chicago has guns in it, must have been a stray bullet form elsewhere

Re: 72 year old man shot dead
What makes me sick about this whole thing is how badly the TM/GZ thing got blown up by the media, but this barely makes for a story. No outrage, no condemnation, no hand-wringing. Now, you can say its because TM was a "kid", but I don't think its about that at all. Its because they could use TM to leverage a political position, but the murder of this older gentleman doesn't help their cause a bit. And so it goes for the vast bulk of folks who are killed in these bad big-city neighborhoods. Sickening.
